In commercial project design, value for money and ease of construction are major factors in fully meeting client expectations. We have a comprehensive understanding of construction industry methods and offer easily built, cost effective structures.
We believe that flexible structural solutions optimise the cost of the design value to the builder/developer. Many of our completed projects have permitted large savings to be made to total structure costs.
Award winning competitive design is reflected by projects like the Subiaco Colonnade Shopping Complex, where 26% of total structure cost was saved by the provision of an alternative and more technically advanced design by Airey Taylor Consulting. An increasing number of commissions are earned by our ability to offer alternative design models to bring substantial savings to total structure costs.
Commercial project design calls for specific technical expertise to ensure durability and suitability of structure and finishes. Many projects also involve large areas of paving and car parking, storm water drainage and other civil engineering functions. We offer an integrated structural and civil design service to fully meet total design criteria and value for money.
We also specialise in refurbishment and additions to existing commercial buildings. Adaptive re-use of older buildings requires a comprehensive understanding of the geotechnical conditions of the site, and structural effects on the original building which may have taken effect. It also involves a thorough knowledge of materials not currently in use, such as cast iron and timber columns, as well as economical and safe techniques for the formation of large openings within existing load bearing walls.
