Structural Engineers, Architects & Civil Engineers in Rawalpindi

Rawalpindi, the twin city of Islamabad, mixes military cantonment housing with fast-growing commercial and residential sectors.

Struc-Arch is a PEC-registered civil and structural engineering consultancy (firm licence #Consult/2452; principal engineer Saad Afzal, PEC #Civil/32786, PMP, LEED Green Associate). The team also includes qualified architects, so in Rawalpindi you get architectural design, house planning and structural engineering from one office instead of coordinating several vendors. We serve Rawalpindi, Punjab and all of Pakistan - see the Rawalpindi services page for the local details.

Structural engineers in Rawalpindi

A structural engineer is the professional who makes sure a building stands. In Rawalpindi that means designing foundations for the local soil, sizing columns and beams for the real loads, and producing GFC (good for construction) drawings a contractor can actually build from. Typical projects we handle in Rawalpindi include apartment buildings, commercial plazas, cantonment and private homes, renovations and extensions.

Projects on the Rawalpindi side of the capital region often straddle RDA and CDA requirements - we prepare documents to satisfy whichever authority applies.

• RDA structural approval
• residential and commercial design
• high-rise framing
• architectural planning

Architects and civil engineers in Rawalpindi

Architects turn your needs into a building - layouts, elevations, facades and planning. Civil engineers make it buildable - site works, quantities, supervision and the documentation that keeps a project on budget and on record. Because Struc-Arch carries architects and civil engineers alongside structural engineers in one team, your project does not get lost between consultants.
