SD Consulting Engineers

At SD Consulting Engineers, we provide reliable and accurate Professional Certification services to ensure your building or structural project meets all required Australian Standards and regulatory requirements. Our certifications help streamline approvals, support compliance, and give clients the confidence that their structure is safe, durable, and properly engineered.

As a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ – Structural), we provide independent RPEQ sign-off and certification services for structural, seismic, and waterproofing works across residential, commercial, and remedial projects.
All designs are reviewed to ensure compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC) and relevant Australian Standards, including AS 3600 (Concrete), AS 4100 (Steel), AS 1170, and AS 1720 (Timber).

RPEQ certification offers clients the confidence that the engineering work has been carried out—or reviewed—by a qualified professional engineer registered under the Professional Engineers Act 2002 (Qld). This certification ensures your project meets statutory, technical, and safety requirements, protecting owners, builders, and certifiers from risk or non-compliance.

As an RPEQ-registered structural engineer, we deliver independent structural design verification and certification for a wide range of residential, commercial, and remedial works.

All structural reviews are completed in accordance with the NCC and the required Australian Standards (AS 3600, AS 4100, AS 1720, etc.).

  • Form 15 (Design) and Form 16 (Inspection) certification

  • Structural design verification and peer review

  • Certification for retaining walls, slabs, footings, framing

  • Load assessments and structural adequacy reports

  • Compliance certification for councils and private certifiers

You receive a legally valid and professionally reviewed RPEQ-certified design—supporting safety, compliance, and engineering accountability.

Seismic engineering requires precision, compliance, and accountability, especially for performance-based design or critical structures.
We offer RPEQ-certified seismic design and verification in accordance with AS 1170.4 (Earthquake Loads) and applicable NCC requirements.

  • Seismic load assessment and verification

  • Dynamic and response-spectrum analysis certification

  • Retrofitting and strengthening design certification

  • Peer review and compliance validation for earthquake resistance

Your structure receives an RPEQ-endorsed seismic certification, ensuring it satisfies required performance criteria for safety and compliance.

Waterproofing failures are one of the most common and expensive defects in buildings. As a waterproofing design consultant and RPEQ engineer, we provide independent waterproofing system design, assessment, and certification—ensuring compliance and long-term performance from the start.

  • Waterproofing design review and RPEQ certification under AS 4654.1 & AS 4654.2

  • Form 15 certification for waterproofing system designs

  • Site inspections and Form 16 certification where required

  • Investigation and reporting of waterproofing failures

  • Remedial waterproofing design and specifications

Your waterproofing system is professionally designed, certified, and compliant—protecting your structure from water ingress, deterioration, and costly remedial work.
