Structural Engineering
Our structural design capability includes experience in the design of structural steel, reinforced concrete, structural timber and composite material structures and ranges from foundation design, to large, complex structures and multi-level building frames.
The structures team supports many of Nurizon’s market sectors – from a portal frame for a commercial warehouse development, to the design of a mine haul route bridge for haulage and earthmoving equipment, or a functional roof structure for an airport’s fuel farm tanker loading facility. Our team uses 3D modelling and structural analysis software to provide efficient and reliable design solutions for client projects. Personnel are also highly-skilled in the use of 3D modelling and visualisation software to quickly contextualise design concepts for clients.
In addition our structures team can also assist clients and contractors with 4D studies (time-lapse) to assist with constructability and facilitate project planning.
Our project portfolio showcases our varied structural engineering projects to-date.
