Compliance built in

The riskiest interface in a building is where structure meets façade. We resolve it in design, not on site.

The frame and the envelope, engineered by one team.

Why STRUST

Most façade failures are really structural failures.

Hold the structure and the envelope in one studio and the riskiest interface in the building stops being a coordination problem. Three things a builder or developer can take to the bank.

01

One team holds both disciplines

Structure and façade designed together, so the interface that usually causes delays and disputes is resolved before site, not on it.

02

Compliance built in

DBP-ready documentation, NCC weatherproofing and independent peer review on exactly the work that gets audited.

03

Senior engineers on the job

Director-led: the people who win the brief are the people who detail and certify it, and you stay in close contact with them from brief to sign-off.

Capability

One studio, the whole envelope.

Bring us in for the façade and the structure comes with it. The same studio covers peer review, temporary works and building physics, so it is one brief with fewer hand-offs.
