Structural Engineering Jobs

Structural engineering is the science and art of applying engineering principles to the design and construction of structures. Structural engineering takes into account the strength and stability of a built structure as well as its safety, durability, and sustainability. A Structural Engineer's job is to identify an overall design strategy, analyze & evaluate the proposed design, develop plans and details, check the calculations & structuring techniques, review designs for cost effectiveness and environmental impact, and oversee construction projects.

Structural Engineers are involved in a wide variety of projects, from commercial buildings like skyscrapers to bridges and transportation systems. They are experts in understanding the static forces and dynamic forces that impact a structure's performance over time. This knowledge allows them to identify potential failure points in a design before a project proceeds - ensuring all designs are safe, efficient, and appropriate for the intended purpose.

Here’s some projects that our expert Structural Engineers made real:

  • Performing calculations for structures like RSJ calculation, analysis, beams etc.
  • Designing structures that uses big timber rafters & log homes or creating site plan & foundation plan for post frame buildings
  • Incorporating static & strength physics into designs
  • Designing Antenna mount with galvanized square tubing
  • Calculating joints of I-Beam section & drafting drawings & reports
  • Preparing complete calculation sheets with full structure analysis

Structural Engineering plays an essential role in any large scale construction project. Freelancer.com provides access to talented, experienced engineers who can carry out tasks such as designing a new skyscraper, creating plan drawings/sketches - ensuring accuracy and best practices at every step of the process.
