Introduction

Constructability in Design’ - with over 35 years of combined experience in providing design and construction services, we offer not only design ideals, but practical cost effective solutions with Health & Safety, Environmental and Legislative issues in mind.

Total Discipline Coverage
Cordell Engineering & Design is structured to offer all the associated component services as stand-alone modules. We have in house engineering & design capabilities in Civil, Structural, Process Piping, Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation and Systems Integration disciplines.

We are able to match your project requirements from the provision of a single project engineer for project administration through to a whole team of multi-disciplined designers for the complete design package

Whatever activity we undertake in this area, we pride ourselves in having reliable, professional and experienced staff that practise ‘Constructability in Design’

Hence from Pre-sanction Project Development, Project Control, Stress Analysis to a full Engineering and Detail design requirement, we offer you our personnel that do not operate purely on design ideals but offer practical cost effective solutions.
