Book structural engineer (OE)
Reports must be signed by an Ordem dos Engenheiros (OE) certified engineer. InspectOS connects you with a qualified structural engineer for your municipality.
Confirmation in 48 h - 3
Structural survey & seismic classification
Engineer surveys foundations, load-bearing walls, slabs, columns and connections. Classifies the building's seismic vulnerability using the Eurocode 8 zone (Tipo 1/2, agR).
