# Frank Structures

Frank Structures is a London-based structural engineering and party wall consultancy serving homeowners and commercial property developers across the capital. They combine technical expertise in structural design with specialist knowledge of party wall legislation—a critical requirement for construction work in densely populated urban areas.

For residential clients, Frank Structures handles the structural complexities of London's diverse building stock. Whether you're planning an internal reconfiguration, excavating a basement, extending upwards into loft space, or pushing outwards with side returns and rear extensions, they provide detailed structural calculations and design. They also manage drainage design and reinforced concrete detailing, ensuring projects meet building regulations and are constructionally sound.

On the commercial side, they facilitate complex fit-outs, retrofits, and whole-building conversions—particularly the increasingly popular shift from commercial to residential use seen across London. They can also design structural schemes for adding additional storeys to existing buildings, maximising development value.

What distinguishes Frank Structures is their integrated approach to party wall matters. Rather than treating this as an afterthought, they manage party wall notices, prepare schedules of condition documenting neighbouring properties' existing state, and secure party wall awards before work commences. This proactive management prevents costly disputes and project delays—essential when working on shared boundaries in London's terraced housing and adjoining commercial buildings.

Their combination of structural engineering rigour with party wall expertise means clients get streamlined, compliant projects from conception to completion.
