Engineering

The calculation belongs in the same office as the drawing, especially for buildings in Nepal.

A concrete frame with brick infill under construction, with a structural drawing in the foreground.

Structural design

Structural design covers the frame, the foundations and the load path. It is coordinated with the architecture so the drawing and the calculation describe the same building.

Earthquake engineering

Earthquake engineering sits inside the practice. It shapes member sizes, connections and planning, rather than arriving as a review at the end.

Technical design

Technical drawings carry dimensions and details from the studio to site, so the people building the work have the same information as the people who designed it.
