Richard Rhodes & Partners

Our chartered structural and civil engineers offer a full range of professional services which deliver neat and easily-buildable solutions. Involving us at an early stage of your project can save you money. Whether you want a new building, and extension, a gym or games room in the attic or even a swimming pool in the basement, we can reduce your costs by designing out hidden problems. We work with building owners and developers, local authorities and contractors on new-build, extension and refurbishment projects.

Glass sheeting on aluminium frames for a large conservatory and canopy project at the House of Bruar in Scotland. Our structural designs were used for the foundations of this glass and steel canopy at Aberystwyth Railway Station. We designed this bespoke monopitch canopy with a toughened glass planar roof for the Edward Wilson School in Westminster. We provided structural calculations for this primary school's glass and steel wave structure and its pile-driven foundations. A challenging project to design the foundations and decking for this caf extension over the Rover Goyt.

Working from either a site visit or your architect's drawings we will produce the design calculations and drawings needed for submission for Building Regulations approval. We use advanced analysis software and design to both British Standards and Eurocodes. Our drawings are suitable for construction on site. Are you or neighbour building near to each other? If so, the Party Wall Act can assign legal rights and responsibilities to either party. We can advise on these issues and act as Party Wall Surveyor for building owners or adjoining owners.
