A signed desktop check that tells you whether your existing roof can carry the added weight and wind uplift of roof-mounted solar PV, before you commit to the install.
A signed desktop structural capacity statement: whether the existing roof can take the solar PV array, the critical members and connections we checked, and any strengthening or caveats.
Eurocode loading: BS EN 1991-1-1 (dead), 1991-1-3 (snow) and 1991-1-4 (wind), with the relevant material Eurocode for the roof structure (BS EN 1993 steel, 1992 concrete, 1995 timber).
A desktop assessment of the existing roof structure against the added dead load and the wind uplift from the PV array, checking the critical rafters, purlins, connections and their load path. We tell you plainly what we could and could not verify from the information provided.
Produced by a named engineer, independently checked by a second engineer, and approved before issue.

This is a desktop review, not a site survey or an intrusive inspection. If drawings are unavailable or the structure is uncertain, a site survey is quoted separately. It does not include the PV electrical design, the mounting system design, or MCS certification.
Who signs. For every commission we appoint a named engineer of record licensed in the jurisdiction of the project. Their name, registration number and the verification record are provided at proposal stage. Internal design verification is the responsibility of our Technical Director, named to you at proposal stage.
References. We do not publish client or partner names. Project references are provided at proposal stage, with our clients' consent. What you can evaluate before then: our verification process, the worked examples published on this site, and the engineering calculators we have built and made freely available.
