Accredited & Professionally Verified Engineers

All structural assessments are carried out by appropriately qualified structural engineering professionals with the technical experience required to assess existing buildings, structural defects and associated risks.

Our network includes Chartered Engineers registered with the Engineering Council, members of recognised professional institutions including the Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE) and Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), alongside experienced building professionals where specialist defect diagnosis is required.

All appointed professionals are independently verified for qualifications, relevant experience, professional suitability and appropriate insurance before being introduced to your project.

Structural Engineering Assessment Overview

A Structural Engineering Assessment provides an independent engineering review of existing building structures, assessing condition, defects, movement and potential risks affecting structural performance.

Assessments may range from non-intrusive visual inspections and review of available information through to targeted investigations where further verification is required. Findings provide a professional engineering opinion, risk appraisal and recommendations for any further action.

What Your Structural Assessment Includes

Every quotation is custom-scoped to reflect your building’s structural typology, height, historical information, and operational requirements.

1.Desktop Review & Access Planning

Review of available structural drawings, previous survey reports, calculations, and maintenance records.
Agreement on inspection boundaries, specific areas of concern, and access constraints.
Coordination of site access with building management, tenants, or operational teams.

2. Site Inspection by a Chartered Engineer

Visual inspection of accessible primary structural elements (frames, load-bearing walls, beams, columns, floors, and roofs).
Assessment of external structural components, including balconies, walkways, and retaining structures.
Close-quarter inspection of specific defects, cracking patterns, or areas showing signs of structural distress.

3. Engineering Appraisal & Risk Assessment

Technical evaluation of observed defects and assessment of their likely causes.
Consideration of structural significance and adequacy relative to current usage and environment.
Recommendations for monitoring, further investigation, or remedial action where appropriate.
Identification of any immediate structural hazards or safety risks requiring urgent intervention.

4. Technical Engineering Report

You receive a formal engineering report prepared by the appointed Chartered Structural Engineer, including:

Methodology & Limitations: Clear definition of inspected areas and visual limitations.
Site Observations & Evidence: Itemised inspection findings supported by photographic documentation.
Engineering Evaluation: Opinion on the cause, significance, and stability of observed conditions.
Prioritised Action Plan: Clear, risk-ranked recommendations for remedial works, ongoing monitoring, or further intrusive investigation where necessary.

Who Requires a Structural Engineering Assessment?

Compliance Assured coordinates independent Structural Engineering Assessments for organisations responsible for managing residential, commercial and mixed-use buildings, including:

Principal Accountable Persons (PAPs) and Accountable Persons (APs) managing higher-risk residential buildings.
Building owners, freeholders, managing agents and property management companies.
Housing providers, local authorities and public sector organisations.
Commercial property owners, investors and facilities management teams.

Common Reasons for a Structural Assessment

A Structural Engineering Assessment may be required to understand building condition, investigate concerns or support informed property decisions, including:

Structural cracking, movement, settlement or suspected instability.
Material deterioration, corrosion, decay or structural degradation.
Fire, impact or water-related damage affecting structural elements.
Balcony, parapet, external structure or supporting element concerns.
Proposed alterations, refurbishment works or changes of use.

Pre-acquisition, insurance, lender or due diligence requirements.

Supporting Building Safety & AP Duties

For higher-risk residential buildings, structural assessments can provide independent engineering information to support wider building safety and asset management processes.

Findings help duty holders identify, record and manage structural risks through professional technical evidence and prioritised recommendations.

How Are Structural Assessment Fees Calculated?

Each quotation is individually assessed based on the complexity and requirements of the project, including:

Building size, height and structural complexity.
Construction type and structural systems.
Availability of existing drawings, calculations and previous reports.
Access requirements and specialist equipment.
Scope of assessment and specific structural concerns.

Structural Engineering Assessment FAQS

Do you carry out the Structural Engineering Assessment directly?

No. Compliance Assured coordinates independent Chartered Structural Engineers (IStructE or ICE) who carry out the site inspection, undertake the appraisal, and issue the formal engineering report.

Can structural assessments be completed in occupied buildings?

Yes. Non-intrusive visual appraisals are routinely coordinated within occupied residential and commercial property environments, with access scheduled to minimise disruption to residents and operational activities.

Does a standard assessment include intrusive opening-up works?

No. Initial structural appraisals are non-intrusive and focused on visible, accessible structural elements. If concealed defects or lack of structural drawings make further evidence necessary, the engineer will outline a specific scope for intrusive opening-up or materials testing within their recommendations.

How does a structural report support Building Safety Case information?

Structural engineering reports provide documented, professional evidence regarding the physical state of the building’s main structure. This information assists Accountable Persons in demonstrating that structural risks have been identified, evaluated, and managed.

What details are required to obtain a quotation?

To prepare an accurate quotation, we typically require the building address, structural type, approximate age and storey height, details of known structural concerns or purpose of assessment, and any available historic reports or drawings.
