Our Team

An experienced, close-knit team of structural engineers, working from offices in the Cotswolds, the Peak District and London.

The Practice

People You Can Rely On

BTA Structural Design was formed in 2001 and has grown into an experienced team working from offices in the Cotswolds, the Peak District and London. Most of our projects are in the Cotswolds, London and the West of England, though many take us further afield. Since joining the QuestGates group in 2024, we combine the feel of a close, established practice with the reach and depth of a national group.
