Project Snapshot
Project type: Manufacturing facility
Location: Ireland
Client type: Industrial Client
Structural system: Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) frames
Software: Tekla TSD, Ideastatica, Navisworks, SAP2000
Scope of work: Structural steel design for PEB frames, Connection design, Engineering calculations and design package
The Challenge
- The project was constrained by tight budget and program requirements.
- The client required a fast-to-build solution without compromising structural performance.
- Over design would negatively impact cost and fabrication lead times.
- The structure needed to remain flexible for future operational use.
Our Engineering Approach
- We developed an optimized PEB framing solution, tailored to the project’s span, loading, and functional needs.
- Member sizing and frame geometry were refined to achieve material efficiency.
- Connection design was aligned with PEB fabrication standards to support rapid production.
- The overall design was structured to move quickly from engineering into fabrication.
- All engineering was delivered in accordance with Eurocodes.
Tools and Deliverables
- Structural engineering calculations for PEB frames.
- Detailed design package including drawings and connection details.
- Approval-ready documentation suitable for fabrication and construction.
Results & Value Delivered
- Delivered a cost-effective structural solution aligned with budget constraints.
- Reduced fabrication and erection time through PEB optimization.
- Supported fast-track construction without design delays.
- Met all performance and compliance requirements.
Value to the Client
- Delivered budget- and schedule-driven structural engineering.
- Reduced project risk through efficient design decisions.
- Provided clear, fabrication-ready documentation.
- Demonstrated strong experience in PEB-based industrial projects in Ireland.
