Design that gets through permit review
Steel frames analysed to NSCP 2015 and documented the way Philippine building officials and engineers of record expect.

Design basis first
We agree the design basis in writing before analysis: site location, wind exposure, seismic source and soil profile, occupancy category and collateral loads. That avoids the most common reason for redesign – a load nobody told the engineer about.
Calculations and drawings are then issued for your Philippine-licensed engineer of record to review, sign and submit.

Codes & compliance
Designed for Philippine approval
The codes our engineers work to on Philippine projects – and the approvals your project team will obtain with our documents.
Philippines
- NSCP 2015 Vol. 1National Structural Code of the Philippines – loads, wind (Sec. 207), seismic (Sec. 208) and steel design
- AISC 360 / AISC 341Structural steel design and seismic provisions, as referenced by NSCP Chapter 5
- AISI S100Cold-formed steel members – purlins, girts and eave struts
- AWS D1.1Structural welding – procedures, welders and inspection
- ISO 12944Corrosion protection by paint systems, by corrosivity category C2–C5
- PD 1096 · RA 9514National Building Code and Fire Code of the Philippines (Revised IRR 2019)
- Engineer of record
- Plans and calculations signed and sealed by a Philippine-licensed civil or structural engineer for the building permit
- Fire safety
- Fire Safety Evaluation Clearance (FSEC) from the BFP before the permit; fire-resistance ratings per type of construction
Summary for orientation only – the project specification, the adopted code edition and the authority having jurisdiction govern.

3D model and clash checks
Every frame is detailed in a 3D model that produces shop drawings and checks clashes with services and architecture.

Frequently asked questions
Can you work from an architect's plans only?
Yes. We propose the structural concept and price from architectural drawings.
Do you design to other codes?
Yes, but for Philippine projects NSCP 2015 governs.
