[EXPERTISE]

Five disciplines, one subject: the structure that already stands.

Each service can be commissioned on its own, but they are designed to run as a sequence — investigation informs diagnosis, diagnosis defines strategy, strategy governs design.

CAT-01 / RECOVERY

Recovery & retrofitting

Our core specialty: returning capacity, durability and usable life to structures that already exist.

  • /Reinforced concrete strengthening
  • /Steel structure rehabilitation
  • /Masonry strengthening
  • /Seismic retrofit
  • /Foundation strengthening
  • /Structural repair
  • /Change-of-use interventions
  • /Recovery of damaged structures
  • /Rehabilitation of historic buildings
CAT-02 / DIAGNOSIS

Forensic diagnosis

Reading damage as evidence: what is happening, why it is happening, and what it means for capacity.

  • /Structural damage assessment
  • /Failure analysis
  • /Crack and deformation analysis
  • /Material degradation
  • /Causes of deterioration
  • /Structural performance assessment
  • /Seismic vulnerability assessment
CAT-03 / INSPECTION

Inspection & survey

Measured, documented fact-finding on site — the basis of every downstream engineering decision.

  • /Structural surveys
  • /Site investigations
  • /Condition assessments
  • /Visual inspections
  • /Geometric and material surveys
  • /Non-destructive testing
  • /Monitoring and instrumentation
CAT-04 / STRATEGY

Engineering advisory

Independent technical judgement for owners, architects, developers, authorities and contractors.

  • /Technical due diligence
  • /Feasibility studies
  • /Intervention strategies
  • /Risk assessment
  • /Maintenance and rehabilitation strategies
  • /Cost and intervention prioritisation
CAT-05 / DESIGN

Structural design

Interventions detailed to be buildable in occupied, constrained and sensitive existing fabric.

  • /Retrofit design
  • /Strengthening systems
  • /Seismic upgrading
  • /Structural rehabilitation
  • /Repair design
  • /Alterations and extensions
  • /Temporary works
  • /Detailed engineering documentation
