Services

Structural survey

Understanding in order to preserve and minimise risk.
We carry out detailed surveys supported by specialised testing to structurally characterise and assess the condition of existing buildings and structures. We identify damage and deterioration mechanisms, characterise materials and structural systems, and define intervention requirements.

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment

Reducing risk, increasing resilience.
We analyze the seismic behavior of existing buildings and structures, identifying critical weaknesses and assess structural performance under earthquake loading. We develop structural models, evaluate seismic vulnerability, and define appropriate strengthening strategies.

Structural Design

Exclusive in Portugal

Conservation and strengthening design based on structural survey findings.
We design and engineer structural reinforcement solutions, ensuring compatibility between materials and construction systems while guaranteeing efficiency, durability, and sustainability. We also apply our creativity and technical expertise to the design of new constructions.

Testimonials

“The team provided an excellent service on our central London project.”

They were professional, responsive, and well organised throughout, with clear communication from initial arrangements through to completion on site. The final report was thorough, clearly written, and delivered promptly, giving our design and project teams confidence in the findings and helping us make well-informed decisions.

“We engaged the team to assess existing stone pillars at a Grade II* listed property in the UK.”

The assessment comprised on-site visual inspection, LiDAR survey and Sonic testing, resulting in clear monitoring and repair recommendations. They demonstrated strong conservation expertise, minimised intervention, communicated clearly throughout, and were readily available to discuss queries. We would highly recommend them for sensitive structural investigations.

“Atelier in.vitro has been collaborating with NCREP on several built-heritage conservation projects, in a close, consistent, and ongoing working relationship.”

The rigour of the technical support, the sharing of knowledge, and the careful coordination between diagnosis and design have been decisive in supporting decisions, refining solutions, and responding consciously and responsibly to particularly demanding heritage contexts. The high level of dedication of the entire team also stands out, as well as the committed and rigorous way in which they face the challenges of each project, representing a clear added value to its development.
