Residential Structural Engineer Melbourne
“With a strong focus on the residential sector, EMS Engineering Consultancy works with Melbourne homeowners, builders and owner-builders on structural engineering for renovations, extensions, new builds and everything in between. As your residential structural engineer, we provide:
- Load bearing wall removal engineering — assessment, beam design and structural drawings for opening up floor plans in renovations
- Extension and second-storey addition design — structural documentation for building permit applications
- Retaining wall design — engineered to Australian Standards, with proper drainage design to prevent common failure points
- Structural engineer inspections and reports — for cracks, movement, pre-purchase concerns, or council/insurance requirements
- New build structural design — from single dwellings through to dual occupancy and multi-unit developments
Many Melbourne renovation and building permit applications require structural certification signed by a registered engineer before council approval can proceed — our residential structural engineering services are built around getting this right the first time, avoiding delays and costly re-engineering.”

Do You Need a Structural Engineer for Your Project?
“Under the Building Act 1993, structural work such as removing a load-bearing wall, adding a second storey, or building a retaining wall generally requires a building permit — and the application must include structural documentation prepared and signed by a registered structural engineer. A builder alone cannot provide this sign-off.
If you’re planning a renovation, extension or new build in Melbourne, engaging a structural engineer early in the process helps avoid delays at the permit stage and ensures the design is sound before construction begins.”
