Shed and Workshop Engineering

What We Provide – Shed and Workshop Engineering Services

Our engineering services cover all aspects of shed and workshop builds, including:

  1. ✅ Structural design and certification (steel, timber, or hybrid)

  2. ✅ Concrete slab and footing design

  3. ✅ Wind region calculations (in compliance with AS/NZS 1170.2)

  4. ✅ Site-specific engineering based on soil type and topography

  5. ✅ Council-ready documentation for building permit applications

We make sure your shed or workshop is engineered right the first time—no guesswork, no cut corners.

Do I Need Council Approval for a Shed or Workshop?

Yes—if your structure exceeds certain size, height, or setback limits, council approval is required. Most councils require building approval for:

  • Sheds larger than 10m²

  • Workshops attached to other structures

  • Structures near boundaries or easements

  • Buildings with electrical or plumbing connections

  • Commercial or industrial sheds
