Structural Design Engineering Brisbane, Logan & Ipswich

What We Design

We provide structural design and drawings for:

  • New homes and dual occupancies
  • House extensions and renovations
  • Carports, patios, and pergolas
  • Retaining walls and footings
  • Load-bearing wall removals
  • Slabs, steel frames, timber framing and more

Every design comes with detailed engineering drawings and Form 15 certification—ready to go for council lodgement or your private certifier.

Why Use a Structural Engineer for Your Design?

Getting the design right from the start avoids costly changes or knockbacks later. Our team:

  • Works with your architect or designer
  • Makes sure everything meets the National Construction Code (NCC)
  • Designs for local site conditions (like reactive clay or flood zones)
  • Provides easy-to-read plans your builder will thank you for

We’ll also flag anything we think needs extra attention—no cutting corners, no surprises later.
