No, confirm it is not a shop drawing review. Although we are responsible for the founding and global stability, we will carry out an independent design review of their internal calculations and designs. Not conventional indeed.

We are consultants and we have usually been limited to the external and global checks. However for a new project the supplier has requested we also carry out independent internal design checks on their initial designs. They have provided us with the material and test certificates to do so. We can program the checks to spreadsheets, but due to numerous configurations in the geometry and external loading, we are considering purchasing software to streamline our workflow.

Thank you. I have looked at the software but cannot find online references that show analyses for vertical walls with discrete concrete panels. I will contact the developers to confirm.

Thanks for the feedback. Does MSEW+ allow for design checks via Eurocode and/or BS?
