Project Evaluation & Value Engineering
Project evaluation is generally undertaken post-design, while value engineering is typically conducted prior to or during the design phase.
Overdesign of structural engineering elements is, unfortunately, a common practice among some practitioners. A peer review conducted by an experienced structural engineer can identify whether a structure has been overdesigned.
Rickard Engineering’s strict adherence to economical design within its own practice enables the auditing of work undertaken by others and, where necessary, the provision of recommendations for design amendment and cost minimisation.
Rickard Engineering undertakes both project evaluation and value engineering in conjunction with Robert Hart, who has over 50 years of experience working with architects, engineers across all disciplines, builders, and developers.
