Our Process

1
Project Briefing and Concept Development: We work closely with you and your architect to understand the project's vision, constraints, and requirements. We provide early input to ensure the architectural vision is structurally feasible and efficient
2
Structural Analysis and System Design: Our engineers perform detailed analysis and calculations to design the most appropriate structural system for the project, optimizing for safety, serviceability, cost, and constructability
3
Detailed Design and Documentation: We produce a full set of structural design drawings and specifications, including footing and slab plans, framing layouts, and connection details, all ready for council approval and construction
4
Construction Phase Support: We remain available throughout the construction process to respond to contractor queries, review shop drawings, and conduct site inspections to ensure the structural design is being implemented correctly

The AZTA Advantage for Structural Design

Designed to Prevent Failure

Our forensic work gives us a library of knowledge on what not to do. We see common failure points and design flaws every day, and we apply those lessons to our new designs, creating structures that are inherently more robust and durable.

Practical and Buildable Designs

We understand the practical realities of construction. Our designs are not just theoretically sound; they are detailed in a way that is clear and practical for builders to execute on-site, reducing errors and delays.

Collaborative Partnership

We view ourselves as part of your project team. We work collaboratively with architects, builders, and other consultants to find the best integrated solutions and achieve the project's overall goals.
