SERVICES

Our engineering is the centre of all the projects we undertake. At Studio89 we offer our expertise to design solutions that comply with the

New Zealand Building code.

Our engineers specifically assess each design for structural and environmental loading and ensure that the solution meets all code requirements.

Standards typically referenced in our designs:

  • ASNZS1170.0 - General Principles

  • ASNZS1170.1 - Permanent, Imposed  Actions

  • ASNZS1170.2 - Wind Actions

  • ASNZS1170.3 - Snow Actions

  • AS1170.4 - Earthquake Structural Design

  • NZS1170.5 - Earthquake Actions NZ

  • NZS4219 - Seismic performance of engineering systems in buildings

  • AS4100 - Steel Structures

  • ASNZS4600 - Cold-Formed Steel

  • ASNZS2785 - Suspended Ceilings

  • NZS3404 - Steel Structures

Ensuring compliance is vital in every construction endeavor. It involves aligning and delivering customized designs, which necessitates obtaining producer statements like PS1 for design and PS4 for construction review.

At Studio89, we have in-house engineers and qualified producer statement authors who specialize in streamlining this critical process.

 

Studio89 has a team of compliance engineers who can service any PS4 requirements across New Zealand or Australia.

In New Zealand, all buildings must adhere to non-structural seismic design requirements outlined in the NZ Building Code (NZBC) and specifically the NBS (New Building Standard).

Saving You Material Costs

We only hire engineers with over 10 years of industry experience. This ensures we deliver innovative engineering designs, minimizing complexity and saving you significant costs on materials compared to overly cautious, inexperienced engineers.

Fast Lead Times

Our PS1 certifications are among the quickest in New Zealand. Typically, we provide site-specific PS1s within one week and generic PS1s within two weeks. For urgent needs, we offer a service to prioritize your project ahead of others in our queue.

Non-Biased Advise

Unlike many engineering firms that partner with specific suppliers, potentially biasing their recommendations, we do not align with any suppliers. This allows us to provide unbiased advice that prioritizes both quality and cost-effectiveness for our clients. 

Advanced Tech

We are constantly working to improve our offerings and expand upon our technological capabilities. Our expert team of professionals are passionate about using the most advanced tech on the market. Ready to experience the future? Get in touch.
