CIV Tech Associates
Structural design translates an architectural vision into a building that stands safely, economically, and for decades. CIV Tech Associates' structural engineering team has designed everything from a 60-room medical college hostel to G+7 apartment blocks in Islamabad, applying reinforced concrete and, where required, steel design solutions calibrated to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's elevated seismic risk.
Our structural teams work in close coordination with architectural and geotechnical colleagues from the earliest design stage, ensuring foundation systems, load paths, and material specifications are optimized together rather than resolved in isolation — an approach that has kept projects like the Torghar DHQ Hospital and the BISE Complex Swat on budget without compromising structural safety.
RCC and steel structural design
Seismic-resistant design for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's high-risk zones
Structural analysis and load calculations
Foundation design — raft, pile, and isolated footing systems
Multi-storey building design (G+3 to G+7 and above)
Structural drawings and BOQ preparation
Structural assessment and review of existing buildings
Value engineering for cost-optimized design
Building form, occupancy, and geotechnical inputs are used to establish design loads.
The structural system is analyzed for gravity, seismic, and wind loads using industry-standard software.
Member sizes, reinforcement detailing, and connection design are finalized into construction drawings.
Designs are cross-checked internally before issue, catching errors before they reach site.
Quantities and specifications are prepared to support accurate contractor bidding.
For over three decades, CIV Tech Associates has delivered reliable engineering solutions for complex infrastructure projects, combining local expertise, multidisciplinary knowledge, and international experience.
Engr. Faisal Arbab, Chief Executive of CIV Tech Associates, is a professional civil engineer with extensive experience in engineering consultancy, project management and construction.
Since joining CIV Tech Associates in 1998, he has led assignments across hydropower, dams, housing and road projects, with expertise in contract management, procurement, project monitoring, risk assessment and client coordination.
His previous experience with NHA and international construction companies has further strengthened his expertise in highway construction, quality control and infrastructure development
Yes. Given KP's location in a seismically active zone, all our structural designs incorporate seismic-resistant detailing appropriate to the site's risk classification.
Hospitals, education campuses, hostels, police infrastructure, government offices, and multi-storey residential apartments up to G+7.
Yes — we carry out structural assessments of existing buildings and can recommend strengthening measures where needed.
Yes. Most of our structural design assignments are delivered alongside full construction supervision, ensuring the design is executed correctly on site.
Through value engineering — reviewing member sizing, foundation type, and material specification against actual site and load conditions to avoid over-design while maintaining full code compliance.
