Structural Design & Calculations

When a property is extended, converted or structurally altered, calculations are often required to establish how loads will be supported safely. Our structural engineers Benfleet prepare project-specific designs and calculations based on the existing building and proposed works.

We regularly provide structural calculations for:

  • House extensions
  • Rear and side extensions
  • Single-storey extensions
  • Double-storey extensions
  • Loft conversions
  • Garage conversions
  • Load-bearing wall removals
  • RSJ installations
  • Structural openings
  • New build projects
  • Foundation requirements
  • Internal property alterations

Our calculations and structural specifications give builders a clear understanding of the proposed solution and provide the technical information required for Building Control consideration where applicable.

For projects requiring more specialist support in the future, this service can also naturally extend into dedicated Structural Calculations and Structural Design pages.

Structural Engineers for Extensions & Conversions

Property extensions and conversions can involve significant changes to the existing structure. Structural engineering helps determine how new construction can be safely supported and connected to the original building.

Our Benfleet structural engineering services can support:

  • Rear extensions
  • Side extensions
  • Single-storey extensions
  • Double-storey extensions
  • Loft conversions
  • Garage conversions
  • Basement conversions
  • Open-plan alterations
  • New build homes

We consider the existing construction, proposed alterations and loading requirements when developing an appropriate structural solution.

Our engineering services can work alongside Property Extensions, Loft Conversions, Garage Conversions and Basement Conversions, creating a clear internal-linking pathway between structural engineering and the wider building services.

Structural Surveys & Assessments

Existing properties can develop cracking, movement or other signs of potential structural problems. A professional structural assessment can help establish what may be causing the issue and whether further investigation or remedial work is required.

Our structural survey and assessment services can support:

  • Crack investigations
  • Structural movement assessments
  • Property condition assessments
  • Subsidence-related concerns
  • Structural alterations
  • Older and period properties
  • Pre-construction assessments

We provide practical engineering advice based on the individual property and the circumstances being investigated.

Where clients also require broader advice relating to property development, renovation or construction planning, our Property Consultancy service provides additional project support.

RSJ & Steel Beam Design

Removing a load-bearing wall or creating a larger opening can change how loads are transferred through a property. In these situations, an RSJ or other structural steel beam may be required.

Steadfast SES provides structural calculations and steel beam specifications to establish an appropriate solution for the proposed alteration.

Where required, our experienced building team can also undertake associated works, including temporary support, load-bearing wall removal, padstone installation and RSJ fitting.

This means suitable projects can be coordinated from structural design through to construction, reducing the need for clients to manage multiple contractors.
