    Our Engineering Process
    01
    Brief & Hazard Assessment
    We begin with a thorough understanding of project requirements, site conditions, loading scenarios including explosion threat definition — defining the engineering problem before any design begins.
    02
    Performance Criteria Definition
    Structural performance targets are set to measurable outcomes — not just code minimum. For blast design, acceptance criteria are defined per UFC 3-340-02, P-I diagrams, and ductility limits.
    03
    Advanced Analysis & Modelling
    FEA, CFD, non-linear dynamic, modal, harmonic, and thermal analyses deployed as required. For blast, we use CONWEP, ANSYS, LS-DYNA, and FLACS as appropriate to the scenario.
    04
    Design & Detailed Documentation
    Complex engineering translated into clear, buildable structural drawings and calculations — every detail reviewed for constructibility and compliance.
    05
    GFC Drawings, BOQ & Delivery
    Issue of Good for Construction drawings suitable for site execution, accompanied by a detailed Bill of Quantities with material specifications and reinforcement schedules.
