Blueprint's in-house engineering capacity enables us to produce project specific design and system calculations undertaken to British Standards.
BluePrint's range of structural services include:
All calculations work to (BS5268; BS5628; BS5950 Pts. 1, 5 & 9; BS6399: Pt 2) and or Eurocode (including Eurocodes1; 3; 5; 6 & 9; CIB 2000) requirements as applicable.
The design and detailing to structural elements for new schemes and/or modifications of existing structures.
Full assessment of applied loadings on cladding support systems including, dead & live loads, wind loads, earthquake loads & temperature loads.
Structural design of cladding & roofing profiles from 1st principals (steel, aluminium, copper, zinc, titanium etc).
Structural assessment of entire building envelope coverings (trapezoidal, tray, composite cladding – including diaphragm in plane shear panels alleviating the requirement for bracing).
Structural assessment of cladding & roofing support systems, including design from first principals of steel, timber & aluminium support systems from the structural substrate using either project specific bespoke and uniquely developed profiles, or standard commercially available support systems (HILTI, Nvelope, Ayrshire, A&L, SFS etc.) or a combination of the two.
This allows Blueprint the capacity to design and co-ordinate the schemes of complex support systems while understanding and developing practical design detailing.
