Structural design and calculations in Montenegro
Structure is the part of a project that cannot be “roughly right”. We calculate to the Eurocodes (MEST EN 1990, 1991, 1992, 1997, 1998) including seismic analysis — Montenegro is a seismically active region and this is always checked.
You receive calculations, formwork and reinforcement drawings and a bill of materials. The builder knows what to build and you don’t overpay for excess concrete and steel.
What you get
- Static and seismic calculation
- Formwork and rebar drawings
- Rebar and concrete schedule
- Joint details
- Structural report
What we need from you
- Architectural plans and sections
- Geotechnical report (or advice to get one)
- For existing buildings — photos and measurements
Stages and timing
| # | Stages and timing | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Analysis and model | 1–3 days |
| 2 | Calculation | 2–7 days |
| 3 | Drawings and schedules | 3–10 days |
| 4 | Coordination with architecture | 1–3 days |
Common mistakes and rejection reasons
- No seismic analysis
- Foundations designed without soil data
- Extra storey without checking the existing structure
- Retaining wall without drainage or stability check
FAQ
Does a small house need calculations?
Yes — structure is a mandatory part of the main design regardless of building size.
Can you check an existing building for an extension?
Yes. From measurements, photos and, if needed, opening-up, we check capacity and propose strengthening.
How long does a retaining wall calculation take?
Usually 3–5 working days depending on height and soil data.
Which file formats do I get?
PDF for printing and DWG for the builder or other designers.
