Alexander
Scott Consulting Engineers Ltd. is a progressive, structural and civil
engineering design practice. We are dedicated to innovation,
continuous improvement and excellence, both in design and in service to
clients.
Our core
business is the design of an extremely wide range of structures. In addition,
our civil engineering experience involves primarily roads and drainage
projects.
Steelwork
dominates the structural frame market today and we have earned a reputation
for economic, speedy and practical design of steel frameworks. Unusually
amongst consulting engineers, we view the design of joints to be an essential
and integral part of steel frame design and carry out all joint design
in-house. We regularly provide design backup to steel fabricators.
We have current Civil & Structural Engineering job vacancies in Scotland UK, check the vacancies page to view them. |

Timber
frame technology accounts for a large proportion of new house construction
in Scotland. We regularly undertake structural design and detailing of
timber frame
houses as well as larger structures on behalf of private clients, architects
and timber frame contractors.
Our structural design services also include advice on concrete and masonry
structures and materials. A major part of our practice is concerned with
the inspection, appraisal, repair and alteration of existing, traditional
and listed structures. Our approach is based on first developing a comprehensive
understanding of an existing building's structural behaviour before developing
appropriate methods of repair and modification.
We have provided advice on a wide range of structures from private houses
to large hotels, mills and bridges.Ground investigation,
it is said, is like quality - you pay for it whether you have any or not!
An understanding of the behaviour of soils and the risk presented by hazards
such as mineral instability and contamination is an essential part of
the engineering design process. We believe that full integration of the
soil investigation process, foundation and earthworks design and supervision
during construction is essential to a successful outcome in this field.
Consequently, we offer all these services under one roof.
Our recent
projects have included healthcare, commercial, leisure, housing, civil
engineering projects and facade engineering. We also offer a variety of
ancillary services such as SAP Energy ratings, topographical surveys,
planning supervision as required under the CDM regulations and advice
on health and safety, particularly when the issues involved are structural.
