As experienced Structural Engineers
we are first and foremost practitioners in the art and science of
Structural Design. We do our best to work within recognised guide lines
of good building practice, but you will also find us pragmatic and
open minded to designing in other ways - the limit being the strength
of the materials and safe site practices.
You may also like to read our mission statement.
We are professionally qualified construction practitioners.
Our projects range from minor works [single beams] on domestic properties to multi-storey
framed buildings and includes residential and commercial developments in
load bearing masonry, steel frame and concrete.
In 2006 we were approved by Trading Standards and are pleased to be a Partner in their Buy with Confidence program which aims to take the headache out of finding specialists you can trust. All approved businesses have been vetted and approved by Trading Standards to ensure that they operate in a legal, honest and fair way. We are proud to be a member.
We are the only Trading Standards Approved Structural Engineer within the Surrey and Hampshire area.
As specialists in the design of load bearing masonry,
steel frames and timber structures we have extensive experience
in the alteration of existing buildings. Other exciting projects
have included the use of structural plate glass for floors and walls.
We are always pleased to talk about any aspect of your project from simple beam design and calculations to remove a wall through to complex roof and frame design. Basic structural calculations for beams and lintels can be created by hand, we also have complex computer analysis software which can aid the design process.
You will find Rivergate Consultants different
from some engineers, not only in the friendly and
open way we relate to our Clients' and the design team but also
in the design of the scheme during the development process. We pride
ourselves on giving a completely personal service in which the Client
is confident that we are looking after their project. There are
often a variety of structural options in meeting the desired layout
and we will work with the designers to reach the best all round
solution.
While we have rewarding working relationships
with a number of small to medium size Architectural practices and
builders along the south coast, we are always keen to develop interests
and establish links with other construction professionals.
If you have a scheme to discuss, we'd be delighted
to hear from you.
