Tackling architectural challenges in new-build and refurbishment projects
Towers, buildings with unusual geometries or structures located in constrained urban environments require bespoke structural solutions and engineering capable of incorporating multiple technical constraints.
setec tpi draws on the expertise of its teams to design and refurbish complex structures, combining architectural ambition, technical performance and risk management.
The projects undertaken draw on a variety of construction solutions, ranging from high-performance concrete to composite and timber structures.
setec tpi’s engineers use advanced calculation tools, including Pythagore, an in-house developed finite element programme, which enables them to analyse the behaviour of structures with precision, taking into account the history and specific characteristics of each structure.
