WHO WE ARE

C&R Engineering is the team behind some of the region’s most challenging structural steel projects.

Structural steel
Structural steel is the backbone of every safe building. That’s why our clients trust us for the projects where certainty, skill and discipline matters most — from seismic upgrades in hospitals and heritage buildings to multi-storey buildings, warehouses, schools, and bridges. 

With a reputation for excellence built over three decades, our clients choose us for quality, reliability, and clear communication that keeps projects moving forward.
WHAT WE DO
