Structural Engineer in Surrey
Looking for a professional structural engineer in Surrey?
Imperium Engineering provides structural engineering services for homeowners, architects, builders, developers and commercial clients across Surrey.
From structural calculations for a steel beam or load-bearing wall to engineering design for an extension, loft conversion or property refurbishment, we provide practical structural solutions based on the existing building and proposed works.
We also provide structural inspections and assessments where there are concerns about cracking, movement or other potential structural issues.
We provide structural engineering support for residential and commercial projects, including:
- Structural calculations and design
- Steel beam and RSJ calculations
- Load-bearing wall assessments
- Load-bearing wall removal
- House extension structural design
- Loft conversion calculations
- Structural surveys and inspections
- Foundation design
- Roof alterations
- Structural refurbishment
- Structural defect investigations
- Structural assessments
- Temporary works design
Whether you need a calculation for one beam or structural engineering for a larger alteration, we assess the requirements of the individual property and proposed works.
Structural calculations help determine how proposed building work affects the existing structure and how new loads should be supported.
Imperium Engineering can prepare calculations for steel beams, columns, load-bearing walls, floors, roofs, foundations and structural openings, depending on the requirements of your project.
If you already have architectural drawings, we can review the proposed arrangement and develop the structural design required for the works.
The resulting engineering information can be used by your architect, builder and other project professionals when progressing the structural aspects of your project.
Steel Beam & RSJ Calculations in Surrey
A steel beam or RSJ is commonly required when removing a load-bearing wall or creating a larger opening within a property.
The existing construction, loads above the opening, span, supports and bearing arrangements all need to be considered when developing the appropriate structural solution.
We provide steel beam and RSJ calculations in Surrey for suitable residential and commercial projects.
Typical applications include:
- Kitchen knock-throughs
- Open-plan renovations
- Internal wall removal
- New door or window openings
- House extensions
- Loft conversions
- Property refurbishments
Load-Bearing Wall Removal in Surrey
Planning to remove a wall?
Before construction begins, it is important to establish whether the wall is contributing to the structural support of the building and how the loads will be supported following the alteration.
We can assess suitable wall-removal projects and provide the relevant structural calculations and design information.
Where a beam or other supporting structure is required, the design needs to account for the loads being transferred and how those loads are supported.
Structural Surveys & Inspections in Surrey
If you have noticed cracks, movement, sagging floors, roof concerns, damaged structural elements or another potential structural problem, a structural inspection can help establish what requires further investigation.
Imperium Engineering provides structural inspections and assessments for suitable residential and commercial properties across Surrey.
The scope of an inspection depends on the property, visible symptoms and reason for the assessment.
Where appropriate, our findings can help identify whether further investigation, monitoring or remedial structural work may be required.
Structural Engineering for Extensions in Surrey
Planning a house extension?
An extension can introduce additional loads and change how loads are transferred through the existing property and into the foundations.
We provide structural engineering support for:
- Rear extensions
- Side extensions
- Two-storey extensions
- Wraparound extensions
- New structural openings
- Roof alterations
- Foundation design
- Supporting beam design
Where architectural drawings are available, we can use them to develop the structural calculations and engineering design for the proposed works.
Loft Conversion Structural Design in Surrey
A loft conversion can involve changes to the existing roof and floor structure.
Depending on the design, structural engineering may be required for new floor joists, beams, dormers, roof alterations, openings and supporting elements.
We provide structural calculations and engineering design for suitable loft conversion projects across Surrey.
The design is developed around the existing construction and proposed layout rather than applying a standard structural solution to every property.
Structural Surveys for Property Alterations
A structural inspection can be useful when you are planning to renovate, purchase or alter a property and need to understand a particular structural concern.
Issues can include:
- Cracking
- Movement
- Sagging floors
- Roof movement
- Damaged structural elements
- Previous structural alterations
- Removed walls
- Altered openings
- Concerns about foundations
The appropriate scope of an inspection depends on the reason for the assessment and the information required.
Structural Engineering for Surrey Properties
Surrey contains a diverse range of residential and commercial buildings, from older properties and traditional houses to modern developments and extensively altered homes.
The structural requirements of an alteration can therefore vary considerably between properties.
The existing construction, proposed works and available drawings or site information all need to be considered when developing an appropriate engineering solution.
Whether you are renovating your home, opening up an internal space, extending the property or investigating cracking or movement, we assess the requirements of the individual building.
