BRINGING UNIFIED, CROSS-SECTOR EXPERTISE TOGETHER TO UNLOCK YOUR PROJECTS FULL POTENTIAL
WHAT WE DO

We know how disconnected teams can lead to inefficiencies, rising costs and supply chain challenges. That’s why we work differently, with seamless coordination and practical, real-world solutions.

 

As both principal and sub-consulting engineers, we deliver fully optimised, fully coordinated construction packages right from the start. Early involvement helps us de-risk projects, streamline workflows and keep delivery smooth and cost-effective.

Our approach naturally supports better sustainability outcomes too, helping us make smarter material choices and create build strategies that work better on site.

 

By bringing a wide range of services in-house, we keep projects connected, simple and efficient,  helping clients, architects, contractors and developers deliver successful results.

OUR EXPERTISE
01
Civil Engineering
We deliver a fully holistic and comprehensive civil engineering service, providing support from early engagement and planning through to post-planning detailed design and construction assistance.
02
Structural Engineering
With extensive experience in structural engineering for new developments, retrofit and refurbishment projects, we specialise in the design, coordination and oversight of projects using traditional, offsite and hybrid methods. Our team of material specialists ensures that we optimise the entire workflow, from early-stage planning through to final construction on-site.
03
Construction Engineering
We offer fully integrated connection design services across all construction methods and materials, seamlessly working throughout the supply chain. By combining this with our other in-house expertise, we deliver exceptional efficiency and added value for our clients.
04
Construction Modelling & Detailing
We provide construction modelling, BIM and detailing solutions for substructure, superstructure and architectural needs. With a team of over 25 skilled Tekla and Revit technicians and software developers, we deliver fully coordinated design services and comprehensive construction packages.
WE DEVELOPED A STEP-BY-STEP DELIVERY FRAMEWORK ALIGNED WITH THE RIBA PLAN OF WORKS TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH EVERY PROJECT STAGE

01Project brief & guidance

We’re here to guide your project from the very start. We work closely with you to consider potential solutions that will influence the decisions you make around design procurement and resource earlier in the construction process.

 

We undertake feasibility studies and complete further research and development to ensure you maximise your project potential and reach your desired outcomes. At this stage, you’ll meet your project director who, on creating your project brief, will continue to work directly with you throughout every step of delivery. 

02Concept design

We explore all structural options, creating a preliminary scheme to support the architectural concept and planning approval documents.

 

Depending on the complexity of your project, we may introduce BIM (building information modelling) at this stage, where we create digital models and data sets based on design intent.

03Developed design

We progress initial concepts by developing a more detailed design of all primary structural elements. 

 

At this stage, we create a fully coordinated model, using Civil 3D, Revit and Tekla, bringing together structural and infrastructure elements with architectural and MEP design. From here, we produce technical specifications and data for accurate costing, resourcing and tender requirements.

04Technical design

We produce the final designs for construction. Engineers and construction modellers work closely to create a complete package for fabrication and manufacture, including connection design and detail.

05Manufacture and construction

We provide ongoing support to the contractor once manufacturing and construction commence. We’re on hand to review and respond to queries, manage RFIs and review site progress to maintain efficient delivery.

“THEIR INNOVATIVE APPROACH AND PROACTIVE ATTITUDES HAVE ALLOWED US TO COORDINATE AND DESIGN SOME EXCITING PROPOSALS TOGETHER.”

ALIA BEYG - AQUA ARCHITECTS

“YOU GET THAT CARE AND ATTENTION THAT I DON’T THINK YOU GET FROM OTHERS. YOU JUST FEEL LIKE YOU’RE DEALING WITH A PROFESSIONAL, CAPABLE, HONEST BUNCH WHO GENUINELY WANT TO DELIVER.”

JONATHAN HEWITT - BOOTH CONSTRUCTION

“SOME ENGINEERS HAVE RIGID WAYS OF WORKING – STOP AND START. D4S ARE A LOT MORE COLLABORATIVE, IT’S GREAT FOR A WORKING RELATIONSHIP. EVERYONE IS VERY APPROACHABLE, RESPONSIVE AND IT’S EASY TO PICK UP THE PHONE AND PEOPLE ENGAGE IN CONVERSATION.”
