Industries served

Six sectors that cannot afford to be wrong

Commercial, Education, Medical, Oil & Gas, Petrochemical and Residential — each with its own governing constraints.

Industries we serve

Offshore oil and gas production platform at sea
Oil & Gas

01 — Industry

Oil & Gas

Upstream and midstream facilities where the structure and the process are inseparable, and where downtime is measured in six figures a day.

What we engineer here

  • Separator, vessel and heat exchanger support structures
  • Pipe racks, sleepers and technological platforms
  • Access steel, stairs, ladders and maintenance platforms
  • Tie-in and revamp engineering on live plant
  • Blast, fire and dropped-object considerations where applicable

Why it matters

Equipment loads, thermal movement and upset conditions all drive the structure. We size the steel and the supports as one system rather than passing reactions over a wall.

Petrochemical

02 — Industry

Petrochemical

Grassroots units, revamps and retrofits — from the P&ID that defines the process to the foundations that carry it.

What we engineer here

  • P&ID development for revamp, retrofit and grassroots projects
  • Heat and material balances, line sizing and hydraulics
  • Structural steel and concrete for process units
  • Piping stress analysis and support design
  • Debottlenecking studies

Why it matters

Because we hold process and structural in the same team, a change in the process case is reflected in the supporting steel within the same review cycle.

Commercial office towers with glass curtain walls
Commercial

03 — Industry

Commercial

Office, retail and mixed-use buildings where the structure has to disappear behind the architecture without disappearing from the budget.

What we engineer here

  • Gravity and lateral system design in steel and concrete
  • Foundation design for a range of ground conditions
  • Long-span framing over open floor plates
  • Rooftop equipment and screen support
  • Existing building assessment and change-of-use checks

Why it matters

Commercial work is won and lost on coordination. Model-first detailing keeps the structure out of the way of services and cladding.

Modern university campus building with landscaped grounds
Education

04 — Industry

Education

Schools, colleges and campus buildings, frequently built in phases around a live institution.

What we engineer here

  • Structural design for classroom, laboratory and assembly spaces
  • Long-span framing for gymnasia and auditoria
  • Phased construction and temporary works review
  • Additions and vertical extensions to existing buildings
  • Seismic and wind design to the governing code

Why it matters

Assembly occupancies and phased handovers put the pressure on sequencing. We design around the programme, not just the finished condition.

Medical

05 — Industry

Medical

Healthcare facilities where vibration, equipment support and continuity of service are as binding as strength.

What we engineer here

  • Framing designed for imaging and laboratory vibration criteria
  • Heavy equipment support and shielding loads
  • Rooftop plant and generator support
  • Renovation within an operating facility
  • Structural review for equipment replacement

Why it matters

A hospital cannot stop. Most healthcare engineering is really construction-sequencing engineering, and it is treated that way here.

Contemporary residential home exterior
Residential

06 — Industry

Residential

Single-family and multi-family construction, including the rooftop solar structural work that has become part of it.

What we engineer here

  • Foundation and framing design for new build
  • Structural review for renovation and additions
  • Rooftop solar structural assessment and reinforcement
  • Retaining structures and site works
  • Wind and seismic design to IRC and IBC

Why it matters

Our solar practice grew out of residential structural work — over 18,000 residential solar projects to date — so roof capacity questions are answered by people who design roofs.

One partner

The same team across every sector

Whatever the industry, the disciplines behind the work are the same — and so is the accountability.
