WSP Group – engineering consultants

WSP Africa

Integrated engineering

Integrated Engineering Design is at the heart of the Group and provides the platform for world-class engineering solutions for construction industry customers.

Co-ordination of design development concepts, outline designs, detailed designs, and construction / fabrication data, are only achievable when the construction team has access to, and makes use of, the correct data and uses that data to effectively avoid clashes or performance -compromising errors.

Accurate prediction of performance, appearance, and suitability of designs is enhanced by the use of a single, comprehensive model and software with comprehensive interoperability and automatic updating features. This avoids the need for laborious and defect-prone traditional techniques. Our coordinated, multi-disciplinary approach underpins thoroughly researched solutions.

We can provide sophisticated engineering solutions to meet the most complex or technically demanding requirements for conventional or environmentally conscious projects requiring sustainable development practices. By accepting responsibility for civil, structural, and building services design we provide a team of engineers and support staff, led by a senior Director, to whom teamwork is a natural process. This, together with the use of our sophisticated IT systems and software enables rapid, effective, and simplified development of a coordinated design, which minimizes errors and abortive work.

By employing 3d electronic prototyping we are able to demonstrate design options and provide animated walk-through's that are realistic, comprehensive and exciting. This technology enables parallel and simultaneous development of Facilities Management and Internet or Intranet sites for maintenance, promotions, and e-commerce. Only by employing such techniques can quality and cost-effectiveness be improved, and by offering a fully-comprehensive engineering and environmental service WSP are able to offer simplified procurement and project management to end-users, developers, and investment institutions etc.
