Structural design and drawings for Chennai buildings:
the frame your home stands on.

We give a fixed quote from your plan and floor count — the number of floors, stilt or basement levels and the drawings you need. No per-square-foot guess.

Yes. Ground varies a lot across Chennai — clayey soil in some areas, sandy coastal soil along ECR — and the soil report decides the footing type and depth. We can arrange the test if you do not have one.

Often, yes — after a structural check of the existing columns, beams and footings. Where they fall short we design strengthening first. This is indicative only; confirm with your registered structural engineer.

Most building approvals in Chennai need structural drawings or a structural stability certificate signed by a qualified engineer. Requirements are indicative only — confirm with a COA-registered architect or registered structural engineer for your plot.

Architectural drawings show rooms, doors, windows and elevations. Structural drawings show what holds it up — footings, columns, beams, slabs and their reinforcement.

Footing layout and details, column layout and schedule, plinth and floor beam layouts, slab reinforcement, staircase and lintel details, and a bar bending schedule for every member.

The column and footing layout is shared within 48 hours. A complete GFC set for a G+2 house typically takes 7–10 working days.

Yes. Stilt floors have tall, open columns with few walls, so we size and detail them carefully for stiffness and the seismic zone — the most common structural brief we see in Chennai.

Yes. Buildiyo is an end-to-end firm — structural, architectural and MEP design plus construction across Chennai and Coimbatore — so the frame we detail is the frame our engineers supervise on site.
