The question you have, and the service that answers it.
Nine services, one standard: test before design, and a second engineer checks every calculation.
- Structural retrofitting“Can this building be made safe without demolishing it?”Retrofit design, drawings, method statement, supervised works and completion report
- Detailed Engineering Assessment“What can this building actually carry?”DEA report with test results, member-by-member capacity checks and remediation options
- Structural assessment & audit“Is anything wrong with my building, and how urgent is it?”Structural audit report with condition rating, findings, photographs and prioritised recommendations
- Seismic retrofitting“Will this building stand up in a strong earthquake?”Seismic evaluation, retrofit scheme with performance objective, drawings and supervised works
- Building strengthening“Can my building take extra floors, heavier machinery or a new use?”Capacity check, strengthening design, drawings and supervised installation with QC records
- RMG factory assessment“What does my garment factory need to satisfy buyers and the RSC?”DEA, corrective action plan support, remediation design and verified completion records
- NDT & concrete testing“How strong is the concrete, and where is the reinforcement?”Test plan and test report with location maps, results and engineering interpretation
- Industrial building construction“Should my new factory be steel or concrete, and what will it cost?”Concept comparison, structural design, BOQ, construction with QA/QC and as-built handover
- Structural design & BOQ“Can I get a safe design and a transparent budget before I build?”Design basis report, calculations, structural drawings and detailed BOQ
Looking for a contractor for the whole job? Read how we work as a retrofitting company in Bangladesh.
Retrofitting happens in four steps, in this order.
Step 1 of 4
Assess
As-built survey, concrete cores and NDT establish what the structure really is.
Step 2 of 4
Analyse
A 3D model checks every member against today's loads and BNBC 2020.
Step 3 of 4
Strengthen
Jacketing, CFRP or steel, phased so the building stays in use.
Step 4 of 4
Certify
Works verified against the design, with records you keep.
We are a young company with an experienced team, and we will not show you anyone else's projects as ours.
Judge us instead by how we work:
- Material strengths measured with cores, never assumed
- Designs to BNBC 2020, checked by a second engineer
- Quality control records at every hold point
- Every report, test and drawing handed to you
