Engineering services
Maxwell Consulting Engineers provides civil and structural engineering support for residential and construction projects, with particular focus on soil classification, footing systems, retaining walls and structural design.
What we do
The exact scope depends on the project. These are the core service areas currently provided by Maxwell Consulting Engineers.
Site and soil information is a critical input to residential footing design. Maxwell provides soil testing and classification reporting to support appropriate engineering decisions for the proposed structure.
Footings and slabs are designed to suit the site conditions, proposed structure and intended construction approach. The objective is a technically sound solution that can be understood and built efficiently.
Retaining structures require careful consideration of soil pressure, geometry, drainage and the surrounding built environment. Maxwell develops practical retaining wall designs suited to the project constraints.
Structural engineering is provided across timber, steel and concrete elements for residential and related construction work. The design is developed around the architectural intent, loads, available materials and practical construction requirements.
Engineering that makes sense on site
A design can be mathematically correct and still create unnecessary complexity during construction. Maxwell’s approach puts buildability, communication and cost-awareness alongside the engineering itself.
Send through what you have and we can work out the appropriate engineering scope.
