Civil & structural engineering practice in Peristeri, Athens

EVERY BUILDING STANDSON DECISIONS YOUCAN'T SEE.

«How much reinforcement, which section, which strategy against earthquakes. We make these decisions, check them and sign them: structural design, seismic design, structural adequacy assessment, building strengthening and structural glass.»

THE COSTLIEST MISTAKES IN A BUILDING ARE INVISIBLE.

«A building can look flawless and still hide a wrong assumption, a column removed during a renovation, a floor added without a design.»

«Problems like these usually surface when it is already too late: in an earthquake, a change of use, a sale. By then, every fix costs more.»

Can you tick the following with certainty?

  • The building can carry the changes made to it over the years.
  • The structural design of your new project neither wastes material nor cuts corners on safety.
  • The existing structure can take an extra floor, a new use or new loads.
  • The glass balustrade, canopy or façade has been designed as a load-bearing element.

«If you hesitated on even one, that is exactly where you need an engineer. Before the problem becomes visible.»

S.03

YOU'RE NOT BUYING A STUDY. YOU'RE BUYING CERTAINTY.

«The study is the paper. What you really get is the knowledge that every decision behind it has been checked.»

Safety you can prove

«Every element of the structure is checked against current codes. Not "it will hold", but why it holds.»

Cost you can justify

«Correct sizing means you pay for the concrete and steel the project needs. No less, no more.»

Decisions you understand

«We explain what we propose and why, in language that doesn't require an engineering degree.»

S.04

WHAT WE DO

«Start from your situation. Every project asks a different question, and needs a different answer.»

  • You're planning a new building

    Structural and seismic design

    «A load-bearing system designed to the Eurocodes from the very first architectural sketch. The earlier the structural engineer joins, the leaner and cleaner the solution.»

    Reinforced concreteSteelLoadbearing masonry
  • You already own a building

    Structural adequacy assessment

    «For a change of use, an added floor, a sale, cracks, or simply to know where you stand. Site survey, assessment of load-bearing capacity and a clear technical report.»

    Site surveyAssessmentTechnical report
  • The building needs intervention

    Structural strengthening

    «Choosing and designing the intervention for this specific building and its use, not a one-size-fits-all solution.»

    Concrete jacketingSteel elementsFRP
  • The glass carries load

    Structural glass

    «Glass balustrades, canopies, floors, stairs and façades, designed as what they are: load-bearing elements.»

    Why it needs specialist design
  • The project moves to site

    Site supervision

    «A design is only as good as its execution. Reinforcement checks before concrete is poured, and presence at the critical stages of construction.»

  • You need a second opinion

    Technical consulting

    «Review of designs, technical proposals or problems that have appeared, before you commit to a decision.»

  • Selling, renting or renovating

    Energy inspections

    «Energy inspection and issue of the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).»

ΤΟΤΕΕ

contribution to a national technical guideline

01

We help shape the rules.

«Member of the drafting team of the Technical Chamber of Greece guideline (ΤΟΤΕΕ) on structural glass. We don't just apply the framework, we know it from the inside.»

02

Our expertise is shared with the industry.

«Technical presentation at GlassForum 2025 on the regulatory framework and applications of structural glass.»

03

Specialised where a building is truly tested: earthquakes.

«Postgraduate degree, MSc in Seismic Engineering & Anti-Seismic Structures.»

04

Over 20 years of practice.

«Continuous professional practice since 2002, in new and existing buildings.»

05

Grounded at NTUA.

«Civil Engineer, National Technical University of Athens.»

06

Every material, the same standard of checking.

«Reinforced concrete, steel, loadbearing masonry and structural glass, with the same rigour in every design.»

«You speak directly with the engineer who designs and signs.»

S.06

HOW WE WORK

01

Data

«We start from what actually exists: drawings, site survey, project requirements and constraints.»

02

Analysis

«A model of the structure and a comparison of alternatives. Not just the first one that "works".»

03

Justification

«We explain what we propose, why, and what it means for cost and schedule.»

04

Execution

«Drawings that read easily on site, and presence where needed, until the job is done right.»

«We'll tell you what your building can withstand. Not what you'd like to hear.»

S.07

WHEN GLASS CARRIES LOAD, IT STOPS BEING A DETAIL.

«A glass balustrade takes the push of people leaning on it. A glass floor carries weight. A canopy takes wind and snow.»

«Designing them requires knowledge of the material, how it behaves at failure and how it connects. It is a field with specialised requirements and its own regulatory framework, one we have helped shape.»
