STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING

Retrofitting and Strengthening

Engineering for existing structures starts with reliable information about the structure, its condition and proposed use.

The engineering challenge

Changes in loading, deterioration or incomplete records can require investigation before a strengthening strategy is selected.

Applicable project types

  • Existing buildings
  • Structures with changed use
  • Structures requiring strengthening

Scope of services

  • Existing information review
  • Assessment scope planning
  • Strengthening option studies
  • Retrofit design and detailing

Our approach

Identify necessary surveys and investigations, assess the available evidence, and develop an intervention strategy coordinated with access and operational constraints.

Typical deliverables

  • Assessment documentation
  • Strengthening design calculations
  • Intervention drawings
  • Construction sequencing considerations

The final scope and deliverables are agreed for each project after reviewing its requirements and available inputs.
