Course: Structural Design

Before a project is undertaken, a structural engineer in London will carry out structural calculations to plan out the foundations of the project. This vital stage occurs following planning approval and during the building regulation drawing stage, ensuring the entire team is working to the same calculations. Typically this process will detail the key information such as foundation measurements, required materials, structural works, timescale and any potential risks so all health and safety requirements can be met.

By the end of this course, you will have full knowledge of the Key Building Stages from planning to completion we will ensure the work we provide runs through all three stages below.

Stage 1 : Building Regulation Design. We’ll have technical drawings made up for your project by one of our expert designers. These will make it possible to prove that the project will comply with drainage, fire safety and other regulations.

Stage 2 : Structural Calculations. Here, we make sure that the design for your project is structurally sound. Our structural engineering services will apply their materials and construction know-how to the design, and make all the necessary calculations.

Stage 3 : Building Control. We will put together your application and have it vetted by our third-party building control company which will sign off and legalise your building work.
