Structural Engineering

The David French Partnership LLP deals with the full range of projects from new build structures to refurbishment of listed and historic buildings, ranging in size from large multi-million pound projects to small domestic extensions or conversions. Our client base ranges from Nationwide Companies, Housing Associations, to Schools and Colleges, Commercial and Private Clients.

Experienced and versatile

You will benefit from our experience of designs that use all traditional construction materials as well as newer techniques, materials and products such as structural insulated panels (SIPs). We have expertise in the design of structures using steel, concrete, timber and masonry as well as less common materials such as aluminium and glass. This experience allows us to recommend the best materials and design approach for your specific situation.

Traditional skills supported by the latest technology

Sophisticated software enables us to carry out complicated analysis and design of all types of structures. Our CAD technicians are trained to use AutoCAD which is heavily customised to optimise our drawing process. We also use Revit for suitable projects. AutoCAD add-on packages make our structural detailing highly efficient and include MultiSuite software.

No job is too big

…Or too small

Remember you get what you pay for.

A lot of people think they will get the same solution to engineering whichever engineer they use and just opt for the cheapest engineering quotation. If you pay a low fee corners have to be cut and it is highly likely that the engineering solution will be over-designed and the project will cost you more in the long run.
