Strength assumed from a nameplate
A transformer that can sit in a substation may not survive a lift or a sea state. We check the cases that travel.
Structural Engineering & Design
The cargo, the interface, and the move — as structure.
Structural engineering and design for how force travels through the object, the support, and the conveyance. The load path is the move.
The Problem
The problem is not the weight. It's the guesswork.
Interface designed by gap
Cradle, deck, and foundation must agree. Structure that stops at the cargo outline will fail at the bolt.
No load path on paper
If we cannot show how force leaves the hook and enters the hull, we do not lift.
Analysis after fabrication
FEA and strength checks belong before steel is cut — not as a rescue after a crack.
The Solution
01
Structural design around the object
02
Strength assessment for the real cases
03
Interface design between cargo and support
04
Load-path engineering before the lift
How Structural Engineering & Design works
Structural design
Supports, frames, and local reinforcement drawn for handling, voyage, and erection.
Strength assessment
Static, dynamic, and fatigue cases that match how the cargo will actually move.
Interface design
How the object meets grillage, trailer, barge, and foundation — as one set of drawings.
Load path engineering
Force mapped from lift point to bearing so nothing is asked to carry what it cannot.
How we work
A 200-tonne transformer, calculated before the lift
Heavylift fails when the cargo is treated as a booking. We start with stress points, stability curves, and a packing design that can survive open water — then we execute against that blueprint.
“Where others see tonnage, we see a blueprint. The move is designed before a crate is lifted.”

Disciplines
Four disciplines. One standard of precision. Every engagement starts with engineering, not logistics guesswork.
The Physics Behind Every Voyage
Before a single crate is lifted, our marine engineers calculate stress points, stability curves, and load paths. It's the invisible math that keeps a 200-tonne transformer sitting still in open water.
