Strategy
The Strategy phase helps you understand an existing building, whether you are checking its seismic resilience, assessing its condition before you buy, or looking into a problem. We give clear, independent advice so you can decide what to do next.
Initial Seismic Assessments (ISAs)
Identifying seismic vulnerabilities in existing buildings.
Detailed Seismic Assessments (DSAs)
Comprehensive analysis and recommendations for seismic resilience.
Pre-Purchase Due Diligence
Structural advice on a building before you buy.
Structural Condition Assessments
Assessing the condition of existing structures and recommending repairs.
Expert Witness
Independent structural evidence for disputes and proceedings.
