At Anfra Design, you get comprehensive, optimised structural design for a variety of construction projects. We offer design services without the obligation to commission the project with us, but if you wish, we can manage the entire project from start to finish.
We are a specialist in concrete structural design. As a flexible operator, we can also draw up plans for the client's other structures that are associated with the project. We also have strong expertise in the design of bridges and other skill structures, structural steel engineering and geotechnical engineering. Our strength lies in our ability to manage the big picture!
Customers have been very satisfied with our design. Based on customer satisfaction surveys, the NPS measurement result for 2024 is up to 87.
Planning is key in managing project costs. Although design usually accounts for only a few percent of the total cost, its impact on the final cost is significant. Most of the production costs of a project are determined at the design stage. Our expertise focuses on cost-effective design, combining feasible solutions and minimising environmental impact, while enabling a smooth and economical execution. We check the optimisation potential of all our sites before production, whether they are designed by us or by another design agency. If there is a potential for savings, we offer our client the possibility of optimising the structures before implementation.
In the process of optimising the plans we will consider, among other things, the following aspects:
The review results in cost savings of up to 10-30 % in material and labour. The actual work on site could be reduced by up to 50 %. Where potential savings are found, there is no need to be timid about redesign. In most cases, the benefits are many times greater than the additional cost of the design.
Our design unit has its origins in the design of concrete structures. Therefore we have an extensive field of knowledge and experience in this field, with hundreds of projects, both large and small. Our passion is to constantly evolve in our work and that is why we have not been satisfied with a traditional design approach. We also design steel structures, if required, which are closely linked to the rest of our design package.
Anfra Design pays close attention to production engineering aspects such as casting sequences, moulds and similar factors at the design stage, which sets us apart from traditional approaches. Our designers have a strong production background and we work closely with Anfra's production. Our designs always incorporate cost-saving production solutions that have a big impact on overall cost-effectiveness.
Design plays a crucial role in the environmental impact of concrete construction. Anfra Design is responsibly committed to always designing for our environment, minimising the impact on emissions through efficient use of materials and the development and use of new greener solutions.
We design all kinds of structures for the built environment. Our particular strengths include the design of bridges and other road structures, from preliminary design to construction design. We use our own production facilities for the design. Through this cooperation we ensure optimal and overall economically efficient structures on a site-specific basis. We also implement projects using the design and build (ST) model.
We also offer bridge inspection services to ensure the safety and long life of your structures. We carry out general inspections, condition surveys and special inspections with our experienced and qualified experts. Based on these inspections, we provide clear recommendations for further action and maintenance plans to ensure that your infrastructure assets remain safe and cost-effective in the long term.
We typically design infrastructure for projects in industrial applications, private roads, municipalities, ELY centres and the Finnish Transport Agency.
We also carry out reviews of already planned sites for structural improvements and upgrades. If necessary, we can offer, for example, an alternative bridge structure with plans for a bridge on a private road, in addition to the client's design, if we find it to be a more economically and technically efficient solution.
Our designers have more than 25 years of experience in designing bridges and other skill structures and managing design projects.
With our strong expertise, we implement, among other things:
In addition, we also provide services such as:
When you need expert bridge design for private roads, Anfra offers comprehensive solutions. We combine years of experience, technical expertise and cost-effectiveness. Whether you are building a new bridge or replacing an old structure, we will ensure that your project runs smoothly, from the drawing board to the finished structure.
Bridge design for private roads requires careful planning, taking into account local conditions and thinking in overall economic terms. Our experts ensure that each project is carried out safely, sustainably and with minimal disruption to traffic. We use modern design methods and decades of experience in bridge and foundation engineering.
We offer a flexible service where planning and implementation go hand in hand. This allows us to optimise the cost and schedule of your project without compromising on quality. If you already have an existing plan, we will review it and, if necessary, offer a technically and financially superior alternative.
Anfra Design is an independent unit within Anfra. We design the majority of Anfra's concrete and civil engineering projects, but we also offer our design services for projects where Anfra is not the contractor.
The focus of our design work is always on the beneficial impact on the overall project economics!
Anfra provides expert consultancy to support concrete construction and infrastructure design. We provide design and inspection services that improve production flow and cost-efficiency in industrial and infrastructure projects. The service aims to ensure feasible, economically efficient and environmentally friendly solutions even before the production phase.
You can send your plans to us for review. We will carry out a preliminary assessment free of charge, and on the basis of this, we will determine possible further action.
We offer optimised BIM-based structural design, where we review and develop plans from the point of view of efficiency of materials and schedules. This results in cost savings for the client, a smaller carbon footprint and clear and smoothly executed plans.
Our bridge inspection and condition assessment services includes structural condition surveys, load calculations and development proposals. Through independent review, we support risk management and maintenance planning.
CO₂-consulting we will focus on optimising concrete mixes and load classes, as well as the use of fibre concrete. This will reduce emissions from structures and provide valuable information for sustainability reporting.
Our VSS consultancy helps assess civil protection requirements and includes architectural design where appropriate. This can simplify construction and avoid additional costs at the design stage.
