# Will Rudd Davidson

Will Rudd Davidson is a multi-award-winning engineering consultancy established in 1982, with offices in Edinburgh and Glasgow. They provide civil, structural and conservation engineering services across Scotland and the UK, operating from concept design through to project completion.

The firm serves architects, developers, local authorities and property owners tackling projects ranging from city centre developments and buildings at risk to infrastructure across challenging terrain. They specialise in problem-solving for complex briefs—gap sites, historic buildings, poor ground conditions and marginal plots—delivering cost-effective, practical and elegant solutions.

Their civil engineering expertise covers access roads, highways, bridges, drainage infrastructure and marine installations. They utilise advanced 3D modelling software, ground analysis, vehicle swept path analysis and hydraulic calculations. They navigate statutory consents, manage flood risk assessments and drainage impact assessments with proficiency.

In structural engineering, they take a creative approach, combining deep material knowledge, rigorous design code application and computational analysis to produce buildable, economical structures. Their conservation engineering practice is particularly distinctive—they hold CARE (Conservation Accreditation Register for Engineers) accreditation and bring sympathetic, informed approaches to Scotland's built heritage, combining contemporary engineering with traditional methods and historic material understanding.

Collaboration with leading architectural practices underpins their work. Whether restoring cherished old buildings or creating contemporary spaces, Will Rudd Davidson emphasises that they add value through intelligent engineering that realises what's possible.
