since 1993. The Practice is a Partnership of Mike Ellis, based in Henley on Thames
and David Partridge in Cheltenham. We are Members of the Association of Consulting
Engineers and take advantage of their professional indemnity insurance scheme.
- Our expertise relates to a broad range of building structure
and civil engineering works. We aim to provide an efficient, economical and professional
service to all Clients and other members of their team. Potential problems are
identified at the earliest opportunity and resolved in co-operation with other members of the team.
- We are committed to the team approach to construction and are involved in partnering arrangements
with several national clients including Whitbread plc and Redrow Homes Ltd. The
spirit of these arrangements encourages rapid response and decision-making. Our
role with clients ranges from unlocking the engineering issues surrounding development sites through to detail design and
site supervision.
- All projects are overseen by a Chartered Engineer who is responsible for ensuring that all
staff employed on the project are suitably qualified for their involvement and familiar with the impact of Health & Safety
requirements on the design. It is the responsibility of the Engineer controlling
the project to ensure at the planning stage that adequate time and resources are allocated to fulfill all elements of the
design process.
- Information is
presented using fully networked in-house AutoCADŽ facilities. Computer Aided Design software is available for design and analysis.
- A full technical support
library is available in-house on computer. We are members of the BSI, the Concrete
Society and the Society for Protection of Ancient Buildings. All staff are encouraged
to discuss technical issues and share the results of research carried out during project works, thus creating a robust technical
framework.
