Developing practical solutions based on this demand…

Pain Points (Public)

Property owners and small developers commissioning steel-framed construction—ranging from residential self-builds to light commercial mezzanine additions—need stamped structural calculations and fabrication-ready drawings, but lack access to affordable structural engineers who can navigate jurisdiction-specific codes (e.g., UK Approved Documents or equivalent national standards) without a full consultancy retainer.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Offer a fixed-scope structural engineering service that delivers BS EN 1993 (Eurocode 3) or equivalent code-compliant steel member sizing calculations, connection design, and CAD/BIM fabrication drawings (e.g., in Tekla, Revit, or AutoCAD) for small one-off projects, packaged as a flat-fee deliverable that satisfies building-control submission requirements.
