YDC Engineering

Structural Engineering · Lebanon

Structural engineering in Lebanon, coordinated with the project around it.

YDC Engineering supports structural engineering requirements in Beirut and across Lebanon through studies, design development, technical review, multidisciplinary coordination, constructability review and construction-stage support.

Discipline scope

Technical work structured around the project stage.

The exact deliverables depend on the appointment, available information and the decisions that still need to be resolved.

01

Structural studies

Review available information, loads, existing conditions and project constraints before structural decisions are fixed.

02

Design development

Develop structural concepts and stage-appropriate technical information for the agreed project scope.

03

Interface coordination

Coordinate structural requirements with architecture, MEP, façades, interiors, openings and specialist systems.

04

Constructability review

Review whether details, sequencing, access and interfaces can be executed clearly on site.

05

Technical review

Review relevant calculations, shop drawings, alternatives and submissions against the structural design basis.

06

Site support

Support construction-stage clarification, inspection and technical issue resolution where included in the appointment.

Structural coordination priorities

Resolve the structural decisions that affect every other discipline.

Structural engineering is not isolated from the rest of the project. Grid changes affect architecture, equipment loads affect member design, service openings affect slabs and beams, façade loads affect perimeter structure, and refurbishment work may depend on what the existing building can actually support.

YDC’s structural scope therefore treats coordination as part of the engineering work: loading assumptions, openings, levels, movement, buildability and interfaces should remain visible as design information develops.

Loads & design basis

Confirm the loads, use assumptions and design basis that other project decisions depend on.

Openings & penetrations

Coordinate major service openings and penetrations before structure and MEP information diverge.

Existing structures

For alterations or refurbishment, identify what is known, what must be verified and where further investigation is required.

Constructability

Review details, sequencing and access against how the structural work is expected to be built.

Connected engineering

One discipline still has to work with the rest of the project.

YDC coordinates discipline-specific engineering with architecture, other engineering systems, procurement requirements and construction information so interfaces remain visible.
