Engineered For Zero Rejections

Whenever you remove a load-bearing wall, alter a chimney stack, extend outwards, or build into the roof, your Local Authority Building Control (or private Approved Inspector) requires a formal Structural Calculations Package confirming safety under Approved Document Part A.

Our Chartered Engineers calculate live, dead, and wind loads using latest British & European structural standards. We deliver clear drawings with exact beam dimensions, steel grades (S275/S355), bearing lengths, padstone specifications, and connection details that builders love.

What’s Inside Our Calculation Pack?

  • Design Summary & Eurocode Basis: Clear statement of design criteria, BS EN 1990/1991/1993 references, and material strengths.
  • RSJ Beam & Column Schedules: Full moment, shear, and deflection checks for every Universal Beam (UB) or Column (UC).
  • Padstones & Masonry Stress Checks: Verification of wall bearings (Class B engineering bricks or precast C30 concrete padstones).
  • Bolted Connection Details: End plates, web cleats, holding-down bolts, and splice connections for awkward site access.
  • Building Control Cover Certificate: Signed by a qualified engineer for instant submission to your inspector.
