Our team of structural engineers can work with you and your architect to provide indispensable information that could influence the way your building renovation is executed.

Whether you’re embarking on a house extension, removing load-bearing walls or altering the foundations of your property, a call to IE Engineering can deliver the precise structural drawings and load calculations required to make your project a success and avoid unnecessary issues, both in the short and long-term.

Depending on your alterations and how complex your project plans to be, it may help to conduct a structural feasibility study to determine whether you can go ahead as planned.

A feasibility study is an engineering analysis that serves as a critical decision-making tool for planning your project. Structural feasibility assessments are beneficial at the start of any project where an architect or building surveyor’s design requires significant structural alterations within an existing building.

At IE Engineering we’ll produce a structural feasibility report that identifies any implications the proposed works have on the stability of the existing site. We’ll isolate risks, explore viable alternatives and assess your project scope to try and deliver the most cost-effective solution.

During the process we’ll look at your architectural drawings and may also visit the site in question to further investigate the property structure and even undertake further sub-soil investigation.

Failing to acknowledge the recommendations in a feasibility study can lead to project delays and increased costs, so we advise to listen to our expert assessment of your proposal!

"Before breaking ground on any building project, conducting a structural feasibility study is not just advisable—it's a strategic imperative. This essential step ensures that the foundations of your project are not just compliant but meticulously planned. The results of the study can provide a clear roadmap for the successful delivery of your project.”
