Structural and Civil Consultants Ltd is a North-East based company offering a wide range of professional engineering services. Our firm has the unique advantage of having a team of senior engineers with unrivalled expertise in their fields, who remain directly involved in detailed design work. This gives the company the benefits of a small and friendly office, yet with skills that can hardly be matched by large international organisations. Our specialist areas involve structural aspects of building and civil engineering, as well as historic conservation. We hold an exceptional knowledge of steel and timber, particularly in regards to the use of British hardwoods for negative or low-carbon construction.The directors are both acknowledged leaders in their fields and are Fellows of both the ICE and IStruct, as well as acting advisers and lecturers for a number of professional groups, journals, and committees. Furthermore, the company never stands still. It remains at the forefront of efforts in the engineering community to build in low-carbon materials and explore new and ever more efficient sustainable designs. The firm has recently worked on the first British solid beech-framed building in modern times at Swinithwaite Granary Courtyard Development and has been shortlisted for an ICE award for its timber-framed bus interchange design at Askham Bar,York. The company is consistently at the forefront of wider efforts in the industry to be innovative and inventive in timber design and research.
