STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING ACROSS THE UK
Steel beam & RSJ calculations
Bring more light and space into your plans.
The structure behind your plans
Large openings need a clear understanding of the loads above and the structure below. Beam size is only part of the design: deflection, connections, stability and supports can be equally important.
What your scope can include
- Steel beam and RSJ design
- Goalpost frames and steel column design
- Padstones, bearings and lintel checks
- Structural openings for bi-folds and sliding doors
What we need from you
- Opening width and available headroom
- Plans showing floors, walls and roof above
- Wall construction and bearing dimensions
- Door supplier’s movement limits where available
From information to issued documents
Send your information through our quote form. We review the scope, confirm any missing details and provide a written quotation. Design and technical review follow once the appointment and required information are in place.
What you’ll receive
Your quotation identifies the calculations, drawings, report or responses to be issued. Documents set out the relevant assumptions and limitations so your project team can understand how to use them.

Common questions
Are an RSJ and a steel beam the same thing?
RSJ is often used informally to describe a steel beam. The required section, grade and details are specified by the engineer for your project.
Can a standard beam always form a wide opening?
Some openings require a frame, columns or additional stability measures. The engineer determines the suitable arrangement after reviewing the load path.
How much will the work cost?
Fees depend on the structure, available information and required deliverables. You receive a project-specific written quotation before appointing the team.
