Wise move to get the structural design and construction right. Many people are confused with the roles of the architect and the structural engineer. If you imagine the human body then the Architect decides on looks, colour of skin, how much fat, appearances generally etc. Whilst the structural engineer determines the bone structure (skeleton make-up), the joints cartilage, tendons etc.... and how the body stays stable under a heavy load, against strong wind loading, and even during earthquake ground motion. I am not sure if I can recommend someone on this platform - here to help. So... Hence, I have forwarded you an email details of someone who will able to help with Structural Design & Drawings complete. Visit: www.pase.pk Normally: This is what you need: 1. Architectural layout and elevations - By an Architect or prepared by yourself. 2. Structural design and detailing drawings and specification (inc foundations) - Structural Engineer can only do that - not an architect! 3. Drainage Design & Details - can also be drawn up by most structural engineer - normally public health engineer. 4. Electrical & Mechanical design (sockets, switches, lights AC etc locations are normally picked up on architects drawings) - by electrical/mechanical engineer, or yourself if you know what you want and where. Hope this helps,
