Structural Calculations

Structural calculations are a fundamental aspect of the construction process and, as the name suggests, involve essential calculations related to a building project.

These calculations take into consideration the elements required to ensure the building’s stability and compliance with building regulations and often form the basis of a structural report that is often a necessity for building regulations that prove a building is safe.

Whether you need calculations or structural design for an entire project or for minor alterations, such as removing a load-bearing wall, adding structural beams and more, our team are here to help.

Structural Calculations for Building Control

Not only do structural calculations provide developers and engineers with key data and dimensions for a project, but they’re also necessary to ensure compliance with building regulators.

Our expert team can provide building control structural calculations for local authorities, as well as advising builders or contractors.

These calculations will outline the minimum standards for a building’s design, construction and any alterations, this is a legal requirement.

This is why it’s always recommended that you call upon the services of professional structural engineers who can carry out the work to the highest possible standards, with accuracy and precision.

When a property is being sold, whether it’s domestic or commercial, a building regulations approval certificate is often required.

If you do not have one, the sales process can become far more problematic with mortgage lenders reluctant to lend on such properties.

All of this considered, it’s vital you have the correct structural calculations in place in order to demonstrate the safety and legality of a building.

These calculations also need to be accessible in a professional and easy-to-read format.
