Calder Latif Associates undertake consultancy work in all aspects of structural and

building engineering design.

Our work ranges from small commissions involving a few hours of advice to large

multi-million pound projects requiring complete Design and Management of the

project. Our philosophy has always been to provide design solutions that reflect

current technology and concepts. We ensure that our designs are commercially

viable and practical to construct and maintain.

With this philosophy in mind, we have been selective in the development of our

resources and the majority of our engineers have been selected and trained not

only on the basis of their engineeringability, but also on their commercial and

practical acumen.

Our engineers are fully conversant with the use of all types of construction

methods and building materials and we are frequently commissioned to provide

Forensic Reports.

To maintain the highest quality service, we carry out several checks on all design

calculations and drawings. These checks are always carried out by Senior

Chartered Engineers and the final design and drawings are approved at Director

level before formal issue.

Expertise & Services


The renovation and refurbishment of buildings is an area of major importance for

Structural Engineers. There is great demand to make viable use of

listed/protected buildings and also the need for refurbishment of damaged or

deteriorated building structures.

CLA is known and respected for it's sympathetic treatment of buildings of historic

or architectural importance which require repair, restoration or even conversion

to meet modern demands for space and building layout.

Typically a commission will commence with a comprehensive condition and

structural survey of a building; this forms the basis of all subsequent work.

We are then able to design solutions to the foundation, structural and related

problems, as well as supervising all new and reinstatement work.

The Firm has also been responsible for the assessment of various structures

damaged by fire or explosion.

success of any project.
