I am the director of Mechanika Ltd (www.mechanika-ltd.com) and a consultant Stress Engineer. I have solid all-round engineering ability and I am a SQEP calculation checker/signatory and calculation author. I have held stress signatory status for 8 years, whilst substantiating high integrity, safety critical equipment and structures. I can apply my expertise to metallic, polymer or composite structures and mechanisms in any industry. I have primary interests in remote handling, precision medical devices, fluidics, mechanism design, complex structures and heavy lifting equipment. I enjoy all areas of design; with specific expertise in mechanisms, traditional static and dynamic hand calculations, seismic assessment, FEA, classical mechanics on mechanisms and structures, fatigue and failure investigations and injection moulded product design. I am a good communicator and enjoy presenting to stake-holders. I am an expert user of ANSYS Workbench, RFEM/RSTAB, Solidworks and MathCAD with licenses for all of the aforementioned software. I can produce substantiation calculations to allowable stress and limit state methods and I have extensive experience in producing calculations to numerous codes – primarily BS EN 13001 (crane code), F.E.M Section I & II, Eurocodes, BS2573 parts 1 and 2, BS5950. I am a well-rounded individual with a proven track record in a number of diverse industries, including: cranes/heavy lifting equipment and mechanisms, remote handling, bulk materials handling, precision medical devices, aerospace actuators/valves, hydraulics and general consumer products. I regard analysis and mechanical design as integral entities and I offer design by substantiation services, where equipment is designed to be code compliant from it's inception. I have had several of my designs patented and I take pride in pioneering new engineering concepts and technology.

I am an Aerospace Structural Engineer with considerable experience designing air carriage systems, linkages, high pressure pneumatic systems, gear trains, rotary actuators, centrifugal fans/ compressors and similar. I provide fully worked structural calculations in an editable format so that customers can evaluate multiple designs. I have excellent technical report writing skills and am used to preparing documents for product certification. I have experience with engineering drafting to bs:en8888 but can adapt to other standards if required.
