The survey aims to identify any defects, potential issues, or necessary repairs that could affect the property's value or safety. Building surveys are essential for prospective buyers, property owners, or investors to make informed decisions about maintenance, renovations, or purchases.

Structural design and calculations involve the process of planning and determining the strength, stability, and safety of a building or structure. Engineers use a combination of material science, physics, and mathematics to design components such as beams, columns, foundations, and floors, ensuring they can withstand various loads and forces (like weight, wind, and earthquakes). Structural calculations are carried out to assess how each part of the building will perform under stress, and they help determine the most appropriate materials and construction techniques to use. This process is crucial for ensuring the integrity of a structure, minimizing risks, and complying with building codes and regulations.
