Full-scope delivery

Every phase of the project.
No handoffs.

We don't just do the calculation. We follow the project from the initial concept through to shop drawings and on-site inspection. A single technical point of reference, from concept to sign-off.

CLT timber structure construction - Caola Engineering structural design services

Primary Specialisation

Timber. CLT · XLam · LVL · Glulam

Over 300 structures in Italy and abroad, many developed through to fabrication schedules for major timber manufacturers. Connection detailing is part of the design, not an afterthought.

300+
timber
structures

Steel Structures · Composite Structures

Steel.

Framed structures, lattice structures, trusses, portal frames, special structures and composite structures. Every project includes full detailing of bolted and welded connections, coordinated with the material schedule and ready for direct fabrication.

R.C. · Prestressed · Precast

Concrete.

Ordinary and prestressed reinforced concrete, deep foundations, shear walls and slabs. Precast structures with full reinforcement management and construction detailing. Structural and economic optimisation on every project.

Cross-cutting Expertise

Fire
Resistance Design.

Timber, steel, concrete. Conventional and advanced methods: FEM thermal analysis, fire-engineering strategies integrated into the structural design. Expertise developed across hundreds of projects, frequently engaged to support other engineering firms.

Site Supervision · Contract Administration

Structural Site Supervision.

The engineer who signed off the design is the same one who answers questions on site. Technical continuity through the most critical phases: foundations, erection, sign-off.

Long spans · Non-standard geometries

Special Structures.

Pedestrian and cycle bridges, long-span structures, non-standard geometries. Bespoke design for unconventional loads and boundary conditions.

Foundations · Ground Improvement

Geotechnical Engineering.

Deep foundations, retaining walls, soil-structure interaction. Direct coordination with the structural design to avoid discrepancies between specialists.
