Structural engineer Jobs at Brunel

Structural engineers are incredibly innovative and precise. They are experts in building materials and understanding how physical forces, such as weather conditions, gravity, and human use, affect those materials and structures. Like architects and civil engineers, structural engineers have a passion for creating and constructing.

While architects are responsible for the spatial design of a building and civil engineers for the construction, structural engineers go a step further in civil engineering. They have expertise in structural elements such as columns, beams, walls, rafters, trusses and supports, foundations, and the related. Given their civil engineering specialties, structural engineers are essential to ensuring that infrastructure around the world is built safely, strongly, and durably.

In this career, structural engineers apply their technical knowledge and expertise to analyze lateral and vertical forces, make building calculations and specifications, and design structures using computer-aided design (CAD) software. Structural engineers also work closely with civil engineers, other specialists, and building contractors, to guide the building work as specified.

Structural engineers are most often needed in sectors where large-scale building happens, such as in the construction industry. They help build bridges, skyscrapers and other large buildings, tunnels, power plants, dams, and more. Civil structural engineers can also work in the oil and gas industry on offshore oil rigs. Next to creating structures, they are also regularly involved in the safe demolition of structures.
