Structural engineering consultants for your project
The biggest engineering decisions on a project are often made before any drawings are finished. Early, practical advice can shape a design so it is simpler to build, avoids risky assumptions and stays within budget.
Rebar Engineering brings over 10 years of structural engineering, project management and construction consulting experience across Sydney and NSW to the questions that come up on real projects.
How we can help
- Early design advice: structural input while the concept is still flexible.
- Feasibility: whether an idea is practical before time and money are committed to it.
- Construction-stage problem solving: unexpected ground conditions, clashes between trades and changes on site.
- Project management support: keeping engineering tasks, consultants and approvals moving with the program.
- Existing buildings: advice on defects, alterations and the condition of existing structures.
Typical situations
- A developer weighing up a site wants to know what the structure is likely to involve.
- An architect wants an early view on spans, transfer structures or a basement before the design is fixed.
- A builder finds ground conditions or existing structure that do not match the drawings.
- An owner wants to understand cracking or movement before deciding what to do.
Why involve a consulting engineer early
Structural changes are cheapest on paper. Advice at concept or feasibility stage can rule out an approach that would be expensive to build, confirm assumptions about the existing structure or the ground, and give the rest of the design team a sound basis to work from.
Consulting engineers across NSW
We work with developers, builders and architects on residential, commercial and industrial projects in Sydney and elsewhere in NSW. Our experience with Australian building codes and local requirements helps decisions hold up through approval and construction.
Engineering consultant fees
Consulting fees depend on the scope of the advice, the stage the project is at, how much investigation or documentation is involved and whether site visits are needed. Tell us what you need help with and we will discuss the scope and provide a quote. The first consultation is free.
Connected to our other services
Consulting often leads into more detailed work, which the same team can carry through: structural engineering in Sydney, construction site inspections and dilapidation reports.

What do engineering consultants do?
They advise on the engineering side of a project: feasibility, design approach, problems on site and the condition of existing structures.
How are engineering consultant fees worked out?
By the scope of the advice, the project stage, the investigation or documentation involved and any site visits. Contact us for a quote.
