Pineapple Structures is a structural engineering and design consultancy founded by Roger Adams and based in London. We believe in creative design where the art of creating spaces is the essence of what we do. We are comfortable with exploring all options to achieve optimal desired building aesthetics, space and functionality. Our team is able to cover a broad spectrum of project types across a variety of industry sectors.
This includes a strong knowledge of educational buildings. Whatever the type and size of project we strive for excellence, and appreciate the importance of attention to technical detail. Roger graduated with an engineering Honours degree from the University of Manchester in 1990 (part of the Russell Group). He then worked for some well-known design consultancies in the UK and Ireland, before starting Pineapple Structures in 2016.
Roger has worked on a wide range of buildings and projects with international strategic significance, technically complex and award-winning designs, and projects with leading structural innovation.

This incorporates many factors including consideration of temporary works methodology during construction, the impact of ground movements during excavation and to surrounding buildings, methods for achieving the correct grade of water tightness to suit the end-use, and knowledge of the Party Wall Act.
Underpinning schemes are developed to suit the bespoke nature of a basement, or to address damage to a building from nearby trees of poor ground for example.

We are often asked to inspect and report on defects highlighted by building surveyors when undertaking home buyers and full structural inspections.
Our reports are tailored as necessary to the specific defects identified by the surveyors or homeowners.
Typical defects include subsidence, cracking, bowing or leaning walls, sloping floors, roof spread and general deterioration of the structure.
We also regularly carry out re-mortgage surveys of properties where the lender has requested an inspection report by a suitably qualified engineer.
