Materials selection​
As individuals we have worked for both materials manufacturers and distributors but for most of our careers we have been independent engineers – as we are now.  This gives us breadth of materials knowledge and the ability to make recommendations based on what is best for the project.
​
Process & Component Design
A central principle of our design process is "don't design something you don't have personal experience of building".  By immersing ourselves in our customers' programmes over the years we all have experience of manufacturing and take a fabricators view of the project throughout the design.

Structural Engineering
With the maturing of the composites industry there are now many "design codes".  We think it is an advantage to have pre-dated these codes as we can think for ourselves.  While we now have to follow codes in many instances we always combine this with a first-principles approach to establishing loads, deflection limits, and material allowable stresses or strains.  The end-product is usually a set of drawings which are presented in a format suitable for composite fabrication. 

Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
Our in-house finite element analysts are also design engineers.  With >10 years' experience of composite FEA combined with a longer period of structural design we can rapidly converge on sensible design solutions as well as providing pure stress analysis to our aerospace clients.

Testing/Qualification & Code Compliance
We have a large database of material test results for use in first-principles engineering.  A number of material tests may also be required to establish properties specific to a project for compliance purposes.  Where a new product is developed a qualification programme is undertaken.
