Yorkshire covers the West Riding cities of Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield, Wakefield and Huddersfield, the historic city of York, the East Riding around Hull, and the North Riding towns from Harrogate to Scarborough. Its building stock is strongly stone-built: gritstone and sandstone terraces, back-to-backs and mill housing across the industrial west, limestone and pantile villages in the Dales and the Wolds, and Victorian and Edwardian brick and stone in the towns. A great deal of former mill and industrial building is now being converted or redeveloped, which brings its own questions about existing frames and floor loads. Stone-built terraces and mill housing carry load through solid masonry, so openings and conversions need to be designed around how that structure already works.
We provide the full structural remit for Yorkshire projects: Eurocode calculations and drawings for extensions, loft conversions, wall removals and new openings, structural surveys and defect reports, and design for new build, developer and commercial work. Desktop calculations and reports are delivered anywhere in the region, and where a survey or inspection is needed we arrange attendance across Yorkshire, from the Pennine towns to the coast.
