Structural design is a branch of civil and structural engineering that involves analyzing and designing buildings, bridges, towers, and other infrastructure to ensure they are safe, stable, and efficient.
Service Overview
STRCS Provides quality conceptual design through to Detailed Structural design for all Types of Structure, Concrete, Steel & Wood Structure.
Our professional team have local & international experiences in structural analysis and design of residential, commercials & industrial structures. In our design we formulate the structural design criteria and generate structural models in purpose of performing the structural analysis & design.
Our structural analysis is based on the structural theories, and the structural design is complying the design codes requirements.
Fulfilling our clients need and coordinating with the architectural, mechanical and electrical departments is the core of our work in order to provide our clients with a coordinated structural design
The value engineering and controlling the quality of the structural design are our design methodology
STRUCTURAL DESIGN CRITERIA
For each project, we formulate optimal design criteria that discuss the structural system, the method of analysis, the structural materials used in the design and their properties, the applied loads and load combinations, software used in the analysis and design, the codes and references, static and dynamic analysis, the allowable limits & more.
Structural engineers consider different types of loads when designing a structure:
- Dead Load (DL): The weight of the structure itself, including walls, floors, and roofs.
- Live Load (LL): Temporary or movable loads such as people, furniture, and vehicles.
- Wind Load (WL): Pressure exerted by wind forces.
- Seismic Load (EL): Forces generated by earthquakes.
- Snow Load (SL): The weight of accumulated snow on a structure.
- Moving loads
- Dynamic loads
The most appropriate structural system is chosen according to several factors, including the height of the structure, spans, the nature of the vertical and lateral loads applied to it, and its functions:
- Concrete structures
- Steel structures
- Wood structures
- Composite structures
- Light weight bearing wall structures
- composite structures
- Combined structures
Its the system responsible for resisting the lateral loads applied to the structure and transferring them safely to the foundations. There are several types:
- Shear Wall Systems
- Moment-Resisting Frame Systems
- Bracing System
- Dual Systems ( Shear Walls + Moment Resisting Frames)
