With our sister company, MESS Ltd and a panel of Fire Engineers we are now able to exclusively offer calculated fire capacities for LGS 

We've designed multiple buildings like this over the years, but this is the first one here in the UK! This one is maintenace workshop for Recreational Vehicles (Camper Vans or Motor Homes as opposed to 4 x 4's!) and caravans. 

We have generated hot state versions of all our in house calculations for light gauge steel negating the need for testing.

It's been quite a while getting to this stage, but we finally have images of our latest block of apartments. They feature walls not lining through with joists transferring loads in shear, balconies and lots of lovely architectural features Engineers come to fear! 

Using our sister companies Tedds Add In for Light Gauge Steel we are pleased to be able to share our latest project with it's non standard roof and structure that doesn't line up floor to floor with the obvious exception of the Hot Rolled posts creating the transfer deck is our latest project made possible using ONLY the Light Gauge Steel add in for Tedds our colleagues at Modern Engineered Software Ltd developed.
