# Ironwood Structural Design

Established in 2010, Ironwood Structural Design is a Witney-based structural engineering practice led by degree-qualified Structural Engineer Jeremy Collins. The firm provides bespoke structural design services to architects, contractors, developers and private individuals across Oxfordshire.

The practice specialises in projects ranging from modest interventions—such as structural solutions for wall removal—through to complex new-build developments. They work across multiple construction types including steel, concrete, masonry and timber frame construction, offering particular expertise in both traditional stick-built and factory-manufactured timber frame systems.

What distinguishes Ironwood is their deep local knowledge. They understand Oxfordshire's ground conditions intimately, enabling them to specify economical and appropriate foundation solutions from the outset. This reduces costly revisions and delays. The firm maintains established relationships with local builders, specialist suppliers, architects and Building Control bodies, positioning them to assemble the right project teams efficiently.

For challenging sites with uncertain ground conditions, Ironwood collaborates with site investigation specialists to provide detailed geotechnical analysis where required. This proactive approach to problem-solving, combined with their friendly, quality-focused service philosophy, has built strong client loyalty. Their work spans from single-storey domestic extensions to substantial residential and commercial projects, always delivered to rigorous structural standards.
