We focus on identifying root causes of defects, potential failures, or performance issues using standardized test methods and innovative techniques to international industry standards and codes.
We tailor our services to meet specific and immediate client needs, presenting them as customized solutions rather than generic ones. These are Presented as Follows:
Our NDE experts conduct inspections to assess building and infrastructure condition, identifying defects and safety hazards.
Our team of experts provides strategic guidance on the civil and structural engineering aspects of property acquisition and investment decisions. We conduct thorough due diligence reviews, assessing the structural condition, potential defects, and any required repairs or renovations. Our analysis helps clients make informed decisions regarding the property's suitability for their intended use and identify potential risks or cost overruns.
We employ advanced sensor networks and data analytics to continuously monitor the structural response of buildings and infrastructure to loads and environmental conditions. This enables early detection of damage, degradation, or anomalies, allowing for proactive maintenance and intervention, thereby reducing the risk of catastrophic failure and ensuring the long-term safety and reliability of structures.
Our forensic engineering team investigates accidents, failures, and other incidents in the built environment, analyzing structural defects, construction errors, and material failures. We also provide expert witness testimony in legal proceedings, offering objective and impartial insights into the root causes of structural issues.
Direct Engineers offers comprehensive investigation services, including Qualitative Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) of structures and infrastructures. We use world-class test methods and tools to identify materials, assess their properties, and evaluate their quality and integrity without damaging the structure. Our state-of-the-art tools, such as ultrasonic testing, rebound hammers, rebar scanners, and ground penetrating radars, utilize the latest technologies to identify materials, assess material properties, quality, integrity, and extent of deterioration in buildings, facilities, and infrastructures.

As a standalone service, we can provide Construction Supervision/Monitoring services standalone without being the design civil structural engineers. We, however, as a prerequisite, will perform a due diligence design review to international design codes and standards of the entire construction documentation for our team’s independent validation. The outcome of the due diligence review could be either confirmation of adequacy or identification of inadequacies. Where inadequate, we would provide recommendations and the acceptance of these or in certain cases a consensus with the initial design engineer could be explored. Our conviction from the above remunerated exercise will determine our willingness to proceed with the intended engagement.
As a Clerk of Works, we are the client's representative on a construction site. Our primary role is to ensure that the project is executed to the highest standards of quality, safety, and timeliness.
