Who we are

Small bespoke tasks. Large multidisciplinary projects. The same rigour.

WNT Consulting provides structural and highway design services across the whole life of a project. We work closely with public and private sector clients to deliver cost-effective engineering and promote sustainability in the delivery of their asset management goals.

Our experienced, professionally qualified team can make your vision a reality, and because the people who design your scheme are the people who see it through approvals and onto site, nothing gets lost in translation.

Try it: move the load

Every decision has a load path.

Slide the load along a 12 metre beam and watch the support reactions, bending moment and deflection respond. It is the first calculation behind every structure we design, assess or inspect, and we never stop checking it.

Illustrative only. Real structures deserve a real engineer.

Project life cycle

From inception to inspection.

We advise and design from day one, then stay with the project through approvals, tender and site, and on into the asset’s working life. Fewer hand-offs means fewer surprises.

  1. Inception

    We listen first: the brief, the constraints, the budget and what success looks like for you.

  2. Feasibility & concept

    Options tested early and honestly, with cost and sustainability weighed from day one.

  3. Design

    Calculations, drawings and specifications to the Eurocodes, DMRB and the relevant standards.

  4. Approvals

    Liaison with local and highway authorities and statutory bodies such as Network Rail and Transport for London.

  5. Tender

    Contract documents and bills of quantities to the MCHW, so the scope and the budget are clear.

  6. Site delivery

    Resident engineering, temporary works coordination and fast answers when site throws up a problem.

  7. Asset management

    Inspections and condition reporting that keep your structures safe and your records current.

How we deliver

Built on the three pillars of sustainability.

Our delivery model rests on environmental, social and economic sustainability, helping public and private clients meet their asset management goals without compromise.

  • Environmental

    Right-sized designs that use less material, keep existing structures working for longer and respect the places they sit in.

  • Social

    Safe roads, bridges and public spaces that communities rely on, delivered with as little disruption as possible.

  • Economic

    Cost-effective engineering with defined scopes and certainty of budget, so public and private money goes further.

Who we work with

Trusted by the public sector. Built for the private.

We know how approvals work. Our team has a deep understanding of how client organisations, highway authorities and statutory bodies operate, and we liaise with them on your behalf to help secure approvals.
