DESIGN CODE is an engineering practice for structural, civil and mechanical work. We design and analyse to recognised codes, take technical packages through to fabrication and approval, and capture what is already built.
What we do
Engineering design and analysis
Steel, concrete, plant and machinery structures designed and substantiated to code, from first-principles calculation to finite element analysis.
Forensic engineering and expert witness
Independent investigation of failures, defects and disputes, and expert opinion written to be relied upon.
Technical package delivery
Calculations, substantiation reports, federated models and fabrication-grade drawings, delivered as one checked package.
Reality capture
Laser scanning and point clouds that bring existing structures, plant and sites into the design accurately.
How we work
- First principles first. Software results are verified by independent hand calculation and engineering judgement.
- Checked before issue. Design reviews and peer checks are part of every package.
- Quality managed. Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001 by DNV, a certification body accredited by UKAS.
- Discreet by policy. We do not name clients or show their assets. What we can describe is the class of problem, the code, the method and the outcome.
Sectors
Energy, rail, water, process and heavy industry. All the sectors we work in.
Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015 by DNV, a certification body accredited by UKAS, for structural, civil and mechanical engineering design and analysis services. Certificate C654063.
