We are a team of engineers with extensive professional experience acquired on projects carried out both in Poland and abroad. The idea behind our way of working is to provide clients with responsible design and maintain frequent and transparent exchange of information throughout the entire design process. We do not solely acknowledge success in completing our own scope of the project – for us a true measure of a successful project is our contribution to bringing the entire multidisciplinary project to an end and delivery of the highest value to the Client. We specialize in design of building structures – industrial, public utility and residential as well as other engineering structures – such as bridges and tunnels. We are open to cooperation with private sector companies – both investors and contractors using design-build formula.
Completed projects across Europe
Engineers with a degree in construction and BIM in our team
Years on the market
Both cast-in-place and steel structures including pulp mills, wastewater treatment plants and biogas plants. Atypical/special structures such as platforms, stairs, machine foundations etc.
Public utility (educational, medical) and residential buildings.
Tunnels, viaducts, bridges.
We offer professional design services in the above categories of facilities. We have relevant experience supported by positive feedback from our Clients.
Above all, our main goal is:
Our scope of work is always carried out on the basis of our own internal quality assurance system which is in accordance with applicable industry standards. In order to minimize potential risks to the Client, we place emphasis on thorough verification of our design. We pride ourselves on maintaining effective cooperation and coordination of a number of international projects within multidisciplinary teams of designers.
At the same time, as a team, we love and seek new engineering challenges. There are no unusual tasks for us – we will undertake practically any engineering challenge, especially if it is interesting! We invite investors and design companies to contact us regarding “prototype” projects.
Since 2017, all our projects have been carried out in the building information modeling (BIM) environment, based on Tekla Structures and Nemetschek Allplan.
Structural calculations are performed in Sofistik and SCIA Engineer, which facilitate the information exchange process with BIM software that we use. It streamlines and significantly speeds up the work of designers and optimization processes.
Our corporate clients appreciate smooth cooperation in Office 365 environment (Sharepoint, Teams, etc.)
We focus on the European market – about 80% of turnover comes from western and northern European projects – we have completed projects in Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, Germany, Netherlands and Belgium.
Apart from international projects, we do have a number of projects from the Polish market in our portfolio.
The entire project includes the creation of the new part of Überseequartier in the newly built Hafen district in the center of Hamburg, which will ultimately provide apartments for 15,000. people and 45 thousand working places. In the area of 1.57 km2 there will be fourteen buildings with various functions, including a modern cruise and passenger terminal, residences, a hotel, offices and 2,5 thousand of parking lots. The designed central part of Hafencity in Hamburg combines places to live and work with attractive cultural and recreational offers as well as innovative shopping and entertainment concepts. At the first stage of works, our task is to design the floor slab with beams and columns in the underground UG2 storey. We create a reinforcement model and detailed drawings. The slab will have an area of 3,100 m2 and will be located under the part of the quarter, which includes several buildings. An additional difficulty is the complicated connections of reinforced concrete ceilings with composite columns. Model and drawings are made using the Allplan program.
Hamburg, Germany
Our task was to design facade elements for a 10-storey residential building. Our scope included plinths and balcony parts: such as fronts and corners. There was a low level of repetitiveness in the design of the element due to vast diversity of each unit: 25 types of fronts,6 types of corners and 10 types of plinths. As a result there were 72 balconies (elements) in total. The average size of the fronts is 1.4 m (height) x 4.5 m (length). We used Tekla Structures to create drawings.

All structures were designed as stainless steel. Drawings were created using Tekla Structures.
Kwidzyn, Poland
The winning project, awarded in the "Tekla Global BIM Awards 2020" competition in the category: The best industrial project. Design of a new wastewater treatment plant carried out in cooperation with Pöyry Finland as part of a larger international team of designers. We were responsible for a number of key elements and aspects of WWTP project which is primarily designed to handle 400 000 inhabitants of the Espoo region (with a possibility to expand this number to 1 million). The majority of the project is located underground in approx. 20 m wide and over 22 m high tunnels, halls and shafts drilled in a rock. Our scope included static calculations, Building Information Model in Tekla Structures and detailed design drawings of reinforced concrete structures. Additionally, we verified final drawings of underground structures. We carried out the design of reinforced concrete structures with a total volume of concrete reaching over 7,500 m³ and the length of the tunnels exceeding 1140 m. We put a lot of effort and dedication into designing structures of various functions, ranging from cast-in-place corridors for transportation purposes, through CIP slabs able to carry truck traffic and various lifting equipment, up to pump pits and channels designed for wastewater transport. Each structure had an analytical model in Sofistik, considering various stages of the works at the construction site. We analysed ULS and SLS, such as cracking and deflection. Each time FEM analysis resulted in the changes of the Building Information Model in Tekla Structures. Construction site was systematically provided with detailed drawings and calculation reports.
Espoo, Finland

We created Building Information Model of the structure, prepared detailed design drawings of RC elements, layout of prefabricated TT slabs and layout of driven piles. Additionally we verified analytical model and performed analysis for the section set on the piles. We used the following software: Sofistik, AutoCAD and Tekla Structures.
Lahti, Finland
Design of academic and research facilities in cooperation with Schuessler Plan and Rysy Architekci. Our scope covered static calculations as well as general and detailed design drawings of 3 buildings for Medical University in Poznań (approx. area of 15,000 m²). One of the buildings is a typical monolithic reinforced concrete structure. In some areas, due to specific requirements of special devices and equipment, there was a need to use composite reinforcement. The other 2 buildings use hollow-core slab solution in the above-ground part. All the buildings are connected by reinforced concrete structures with glued laminated timber roofs. We used Sofistik for static calculations and Allplan for Building Information Model and drawing production. During analysis of the structure we checked foundations for cracking to ensure that concrete structures are watertight.
