Structural engineering in Canberra, delivered online

Engineering services in Canberra
In Australian Capital Territory we provide structural engineering for sheds and workshops, patios, carports, pergolas and decks, fences, shade sails and container buildings.
The ACT has a reasonably generous exemption for small sheds, but anything above it, and every attached patio of note, needs a building approval with certified engineering. Our drawings go straight to your certifier, and we answer their questions.
Canberra is wind Region A. The challenges are cold winters, reactive clay soils across much of the territory that move seasonally, and bushfire-prone edges of the suburbs where construction requirements apply. We design footings for the clay and, where a BAL rating applies, coordinate the structure with it.
Pergolas and covered outdoor rooms are big in Canberra. Attached or freestanding, steel or timber, we engineer them for your house.

Three steps from first enquiry to drawings you can lodge with council or your certifier.
Tell us what you’re building
Share your plans, sketches or site details. Please give the maximum dimensions you want quoted. Increasing them later may require a revised quote.
Review your scope and fixed fee
We confirm exactly what the engineering covers and what it costs. Nothing to pay until you accept.
Receive your engineering drawings
After acceptance and payment, we prepare your stamped drawings and answer any council questions about them if needed.
What clients say
“We had offered this work to several local companies prior, who over-complicated the matter and often did not even respond. Now the job is done and completed well.”
“I was nervous not having face to face contact, but managed through email to get the drawings we needed to submit to Council at a fair and reasonable price.”
“Very easy process, great price and got exactly the plans I needed. I would definitely recommend and use them again.”
