There are many instances when you may require the services of an engineer, but most commonly you will enlist an engineer when you are planning to build or renovate. An engineer has the knowledge and training to calculate the forces needed for your structure to be built safely and soundly.
Engineers ensure that your planned build, renovation or structure is safe and built to Australian Standards, prioritising efficiency and structural integrity. An engineer will also support you in creating design solutions that are innovative, agile and cost-effective. This can save you money and time in both the short and long term.
Involving an engineer from the beginning is ideal. Engineers can provide valuable input from your idea’s conception, selection an appropriate structural system, right through to construction and completion.
