Advanced studies

Multiphysics expertise dedicated to your most complex issues

We have a design office specialised in the analysis, calculation and appraisal of all types of structures (civil engineering, equipment, etc.). Its missions are made up of various types of services: design of new structures (feasibility, summary pre-project, detailed pre-project and execution), structural analysis of existing constructions under severe stress, incident appraisal, design of reinforcement and repair solutions, as well as project management assistance.

Advantages of our advanced studies

Our design office is made up of engineers and scientists from the world of applied research and our skills are focused on the use and development of digital tools for modelling the behaviour of materials and structures.

We can deal with industrial demands, from the simplest to the most complex, combining expertise, modelling preparation, digital analysis, results processing and interpretation in compliance with normative standards, thanks to our industrialised calculation tools and our innovative methods.

Our necs design office is also involved in many research programs, representing over 25% of its business. These activities also integrate various theoretical knowledge-sharing, development and use of simulation tools as well as participation in the animation of a collaborative community in the construction field, including validation operations and qualification of tools and methods.
