Comprehensive Structural Design for a Large Rear Extension in Styal

Project Overview WHL Surveying & Engineering was appointed to provide comprehensive structural design services for a detached five-bedroom house in Styal. The project involved the addition of a large rear extension to the property, enhancing its living space and functionality.

Scope of Work Our team of chartered surveyors and engineers delivered a full structural design package, which included foundation design, the engineering of 29 pieces of steel for load support, and floor load calculations to meet building regulations and client specifications.

Challenges and Solutions The extensive use of steel in the design required meticulous planning and coordination to ensure structural integrity and seamless integration with the existing property. Detailed structural analysis and modeling were conducted to determine the optimal size, placement, and connections for each steel beam. Limited site access posed logistical challenges for steelwork installation, which were resolved by collaborating with the construction team to create a phased installation plan.

Outcome The project was successfully delivered, providing the client with a spacious, structurally sound extension that seamlessly integrates with the original property. The precision in design and execution ensured compliance with all relevant building regulations and standards, while also accommodating the client’s aesthetic and functional preferences.
