Structural Engineering Design Documentation and Structural Inspections

Cardinal Engineering specialises in providing structural engineering design documentation for various types of residential, commercial and industrial construction projects including new builds, extensions, renovations, subdivisions, landscaping projects, structural condition assessments, dilapidation reports and Form 12 structural inspections.

Our strong technical capabilities along with our experience allow us to undertake structural inspections and produce comprehensive condition and dilapidation reports for our clients.

The reports provided are detailed, clear and simple to understand and are always provided within a reasonable timeframe.

Our process for design involves initial consultation with one of our experienced RPEQ engineers to discuss project requirements, objectives and timeframes. This is a critical phase within our design process as it clearly defines our clients needs. Our design stages can then be customized to suit individual client’s needs. Breaking up the design process into Concept, Detailed Design and Construction stages can provide client’s with lots of opportunities to review and provide feedback. This ensures we are providing the most ‘fit-for-purpose’ and ‘cost-effective’ designs to our clients.
