25.01.2022 A 3D fly through of the results for a recent steel office mezzanine we designed in Tuggerah on the Central Coast. We use Space Gass engineering software which allows 3D modelling, analysis and design of structures. But a tip for using any engineering software we learnt from University... rubbish in = rubbish out. It doesn’t matter how expensive or fancy your software is, your model inputs need to be accurate and reflect how the structure is designed, detailed and constructed to behave under it’s applied loading! #structuralengineers #engineersaustralia #charteredengineer #centralcoast #huntervalley

24.01.2022 Investigation and rectification design for a set of apartment balconies located in Newcastle NSW. Correct waterproofing techniques are crucial to ensure structural longevity, especially for our Australian climate. Where in doubt, consult specialist advise.... #engineeringaustralia #charteredengineer #structuralengineer #newcastle #jameshardie

24.01.2022 Rapid steelwork and precast concrete panel installation for an industrial warehouse development in Beresfield. Great work Paul and the team at @avacon_nsw ! #structuralengineering #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #centralcoast #huntervalley

21.01.2022 We’ve been involved in a few projects lately in the beachside suburb of Wamberal on the Central Coast. This one is a two storey Hamptons inspired house not far from the beach. The build is coming along nicely thanks to Tonebuilt Constructions (https://tonebuilt.com.au). PBCE designed footings, steelwork, in ground swimming pool and retaining walls on this job. #structuralengineering #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #centralcoast #huntervalley

20.01.2022 What lies beneath the surface? PBCE undertook a structural assessment and rectification of this balcony at Wamberal on the Central Coast. We came up with unique 7 m high temporary propping system and designed new structure to integrate with the existing steel framed dwelling. The end product came up pretty neat thanks to the work of @menniebuilders #engineersautralia #charteredengineer #structuralengineering #centralcoast #huntervalley

16.01.2022 Winter morning critical stage inspection in the hunter valley. Design by urban living solutions (www.urbanlivingsolutions.com.au) #huntervalley #structuralengineering #engineersaustralia #charteredengineer #concrete #PBCE #architecture #winter

14.01.2022 Friday afternoon raft slab inspection for a steel framed / precast concrete shed in the Hunter Valley with future residence to follow. Swipe to see 3D renders of future structure over. A stiffened raft slab was ideal for this site bearing fully on a stiff red-brown clay and with no piering required. Building design credit on this job goes to Karen from Sheer Designs (www.sheerdesigns.com.au). #structuralengineer #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #huntervalley #centralcoast

13.01.2022 Our Central Coast office is now up and running! #structuralengineering #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia

11.01.2022 We’ve been off social media for a couple of weeks so thought it would be worth updating on a few projects we’ve been busy with. Photos 1-2: Luxury beach front house basement and footing construction on Central Coast. Photos 3-4: Temporary propping for refurbishment of two storey deck on Central Coast beachfront property. Photo 5: 3D render of steel industrial mezzanine on Central Coast. Photos 6-7: Inspection of 35 year old concrete frame building in Wahroonga for proposed office refurbishment. Photo 8: Infiltration stormwater management system on sandy site. Photo 9: Preliminary roof structure inspection at shopping centre on Mid North Coast for proposed refurbishment. Photo 10: Concrete block retaining wall (later to support concrete house slab) on Central Coast. #structuralengineering #centralcoast #huntervalley

10.01.2022 Another new two storey ‘Hamptons’ style dwelling going up fast at Avoca Beach on the Central Coast. PBCE undertook structural engineering for the slab and footings, retaining walls, steelwork and floor framing. Looking forward to seeing this one progress! #structuralengineer #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #centralcoast #huntervalley

08.01.2022 Slab on ground additions for a home cinema in Matcham. It’s always important with new slab additions that it bears on the same ground material and has similar stiffness to the existing building, otherwise you may get unwanted movement, especially with masonry walls. Swipe right for progress shots! #structuralengineer #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #centralcoast #huntervalley

08.01.2022 The brief: Remove two middle brick piers below suspended concrete deck slab to improve view. The challenges: Brittle floor finishes, lateral stability, soft sandy soils, temporary propping. The end product: Perfection and client satisfaction. Could not have done this job without the legendary @menniebuilders running the show. Scroll through photos to see construction stages. #structuralengineering #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #residential #innovation @ Wamberal, New South Wales

07.01.2022 We’ve just been awarded a bunch of new dual occupancy developments at this brand new subdivision at Aberglasslyn in the Hunter Valley. Thanks goes out to the experienced team of brilliant women at Urban Living Solutions (www.urbanlivingsolutions.com.au)We’ve been working with them since our business started two years ago and we’d highly recommend them for the planning, design and documentation of your new home or alterations and additions! #structuralengineer #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia #centralcoast #huntervalley #architecture #design

05.01.2022 New Industrial Warehouse, under construction at Beresfield. Site conditions required 7 - 9 m deep screw piers AVACON are constructing at record pace! More progress shot to come. ... #avacon_nsw #newcastle #industrial #charteredengineer #engineersaustralia

04.01.2022 Aerial Drone shot of an alts and adds project underway in Coal Point. The project consisted of a new pool, outdoor pool area concrete slabs, and a large two storey garage/study/workshop building cut into the hill slope. The main structural components include block retaining walls, slab on ground and pavement slabs, suspended ‘Bondek’ slabs, additional structural steel for slab support and conventional timber wall/roof framing. #huntervalley #centralcoast #lakemacquarie #structuralengineer #engineersaustralia #charteredengineer

03.01.2022 Deep sand and a high water table called for continuous flight auger (CFA) piling for a large communications tower in Williamtown. Look at PBCE engineers in foreground to understand the size of this machine and the depth of the piles! #structuralengineer #engineersaustralia #charteredengineer #huntervalley #centralcoast
