Buildings

We were the principal engineering consultant for The Sage Gateshead – the UK’s internationally acclaimed and multi-award winning music, education and entertainment facility

Our building designers present an immense breadth
and depth of expertise covering every type of building development – from commercial and cultural to
retail and residential – and every discipline, from acoustics to façade engineering, cladding to seismic design, fire safety to vertical transportation.

Our buildings business is resourced from offices in 25 centres across the UK and in another 50 countries world-wide – including dedicated design hubs in the Gulf and Asia sub-continent. This means that as the building market becomes increasingly globalised, with more customers procuring services around the world, we're able to respond quickly to our customers’ needs with world-class building skills backed by local support.

And for all our customers – multi-nationals, developers, architects, contractors, local authorities, inward investors and private individuals alike – we strive to go beyond the norm in every area of our work, from ingenuity in design to quality in service, bringing the expertise of our best, most appropriately experienced people applying the best in world-wide practice and current thinking.
