Precision reinforced-concrete design and detailing
Engineering that goes beyond calculation and produces information a contractor can build from.
Detailed reinforced-concrete design is a particular strength of the practice. MW designs and details substructure elements including tanks, basements and ground beams.
The detailing is prepared with construction in mind: bar arrangements that can be fixed, laps that work on site, and information that reads clearly on the drawing.
Note
Precision is in the detail. A calculation that cannot be detailed is not finished engineering.
What this covers
Reinforced-concrete design
Element sizing and reinforcement design for substructure and structural concrete.
Reinforced-concrete detailing
Bar detailing prepared so the steel fixer, the checker and the contractor read the same thing.
Tanks and basements
Design and detailing of retaining and water-retaining concrete structures.
Ground beams
Ground beam design and detailing, coordinated with the foundation solution below.
Complex substructure elements
Transfer elements, pile caps and other substructure concrete that needs careful arrangement.
Coordination and buildability
Detailing checked against the architecture, the services and the sequence of construction.
