STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING

Tall slender structures have specific engineering demands and are subject to the forces of nature such as wind and earthquake forces. Other considerations include the actual physical site constraints, materials constraints, building functionality requirements, build-ability, vertical transportation and M&E requirements.

Specifically, our structural engineering consultancy services include amongst others the following sub-disciplines: –

High-rise structural engineering design

• Staged construction analysis

• Wind analysis (static, dynamic and aerodynamic)

• Wind tunnel test specification and interpretation

• Wind acceleration serviceability response analysis

• Wall / column differential axial shortening analysis

• Composite steel column design

• Core and shear wall analysis and design

• Core and outrigger wall analysis and design

• Tube and mega tube analysis and design

• Global elastic buckling and p-delta analysis

Earthquake engineering design

• Equivalent static, multi-modal and performance based earthquake analysis and design

• Base isolation analysis and design

• Tuned mass damper analysis and design

• Tuned slosh damper analysis and design

Post-tensioned (PT) concrete design
