Designs and calcs are already complete for:

• Structural steelwork: beams, columns, padstones and connections

• A propped retaining wall in clay, about 1.0 to 1.5m retained, under an existing concrete slab and steps

• Foundations and associated masonry and concrete elements

• Issue a signed design certificate on your letterhead for Building Control

• Respond to any Building Control queries on the design

• Inspect key stages on site, including steel connections and padstones, and reinforcement before pours

• Issue a completion letter confirming the works have been built in accordance with the approved design

**What we need**

• CEng or IEng, MIStructE or MICE, registered with the Engineering Council

• PI insurance in your own name

• Experience checking steelwork in existing buildings and retaining walls or underpinning

• Availability for site visits and fast turnaround

**Why work with us**

Our proposed fee structure is payable in two stages. Stage 1, £150, is payable once you have reviewed and signed off the structural documents. Stage 2, £350, is payable after your site visit to confirm that all steelwork has been installed in the correct positions and is signed off. This brings the total fee to £500.
