Structural and civil engineering
Our structural and civil engineers prepare architectural designs for their approval and implementation planning. They advise clients on issues of rational execution and provide all necessary evidence regarding structural safety and fitness of purpose. Many years of professional experience and continual training ensure optimal planning services in all sectors of structural and civil engineering.
In accordance with the dual control principle, checking engineers test the stability and durability – including fire and noise protection – for buildings in the areas of solid, steel, timber, glass, and plastic construction. This applies to the planning as well as to the construction supervision phase.
