OUR TRADES

Structural Study

The Structural Calculation Office is the technical cornerstone of every Simonin project. Our engineers design, model and optimize timber structures in compliance with current regulations, Eurocodes 5, seismic standards, and fire resistance.

Missions

  • Preliminary sizing: rapid feasibility assessment from the initial project sketch, dialogue with architects and project owners
  • Structural modeling: finite element analysis, load transfer analysis, verification of Résix® and glulam connections
  • Regulatory calculation reports: production of supporting documentation for inspection bodies, compliance with Eurocodes EC5
  • Material optimization: reduction of timber cross-sections and volumes without compromising strength, for more economical and lower-carbon structures
  • Coordination with the Design Office and the Testing Laboratory to guarantee complete consistency between calculation, design, and manufacturing
