We have a deep and up-to-date knowledge of each country’s different regulations and codes. In addition, we have a network of local engineers who certify and validate projects with the relevant authorities.

We carry out a study of wind speed and site-specific conditions and calculate the pressures and loads to which the structure will be subjected.

We approach the calculations of the external loads according to each country’s legislation, using the previous studies of the loads to which the structure is subjected, such as wind, snow, etc.

We calculate wind loads in two ways:
Without wind tunnel
We use the local code and form coefficients applicable to the country regulations to obtain the loads and reactions on the piers of the structure.

With wind tunnel
We rely on the coefficients provided by the customer to perform the aeroelastic calculations of the structure, using the loads distributed throughout it to obtain the reactions on the foundation.

The members of PRO5 have witnessed and participated in the evolution of wind tunnels. This allows us to apply the coefficients obtained to the formulation of the corresponding structural regulations with maximum reliability.

Thanks to our deep knowledge and continuous updating of international regulations, our calculations provide the most competitive structures according to current regulations.

Our geotechnical knowledge is based on our own experience, as we had the opportunity to face soils with a wide variety of problems; from the expansive clays of Australia to the frozen soils of Canada, the deserts of Saudi Arabia or the peat soils of Denmark.

We specialize in analyzing the viability of direct driving or the need for drilling to install the piers. We advise our customers and help them to plan the construction with all the guarantees.

We work daily on international projects with different regulations, making estimates of corrosivity with American, Australian or European regulations, among others. We have reached a level of differential expertise for the design of foundations consisting of steel piers.

We support our customers during the execution of the design on site, solving the possible questions about the installation or possible unforeseen events related to geotechnical conditions.

We offer constant support and provide a specific solution according to the loads and the terrain.

We have faced all kinds of soils throughout the planet; from marshy ground reclaimed from the sea to liquefiable soils. All this accumulated knowledge allows us to adapt the geotechnical tests to the reality of the solar plant with very high consistency and reliability.

In addition, we also develop technical specifications for pier load tests.

We review the design and projects carried out by third parties to give our customers a second opinion, helping them to continue with the following stages of their projects with maximum guarantees.
