CONSTRUCTION, DEMOLITION & TEMPORARY WORKS ENGINEERING

Engineering support for the construction, alteration and demolition of residential structures.

services include

  • Preparation of engineering-informed demolition plans outlining the proposed methodology, sequencing, site controls and measures required to safely manage residential demolition works.

  • Development of staged demolition sequences to maintain structural stability and safely manage the progressive removal of existing building elements.

  • Design and specification of temporary supports required to safely carry structural loads during demolition, alteration or construction works.

  • Design of temporary bracing systems to maintain the stability of walls, frames and other structural elements during construction or demolition.

  • Engineering assessment and design of temporary support measures for excavations adjacent to buildings, boundaries and other structures.

  • Design of temporary or permanent shoring systems to support excavations, soil and adjoining structures during construction.

  • Structural design of underpinning systems to strengthen or extend existing foundations where excavation, settlement or new construction requires additional support.

  • Engineering assessment and design of temporary measures to stabilise damaged, deteriorated or partially demolished structures until permanent works can be completed.

  • Detailed pre- and post-construction condition reports documenting existing defects and the condition of buildings and structures potentially affected by nearby works.

  • Site inspections at relevant construction stages to assess structural work against the engineering design and identify items requiring attention.

  • Engineering certification confirming that the structural design has been prepared in accordance with the applicable design requirements and engineering standards.

  • Preparation of structural calculations, drawings, certificates and supporting engineering documentation required for Construction Certificate and Complying Development Certificate submissions.
