Aluminium & Composite Systems

By jarrod

Structural aluminium offers several advantages: Lightweight: Aluminum is significantly lighter than steel, making it easier to handle and transport High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Despite its lightness, aluminum boasts a high strength-to-weight ratio, meaning it can withstand heavy loads while remaining relatively lightweight Corrosion Resistance: Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer when exposed to oxygen, which…

Building Information Modelling (BIM)

By jarrod

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a physical representation of a building. It is used in construction to plan, design, construct, operate, and maintain buildings and infrastructure more efficiently. KUSCH’s team deliver BIM Revit designs and coordination to identify and resolve issues in the design phase and minimise interruption and clashes on site. This ensures our…

Pipe Risers, Anchors & Expansion Solutions

By jarrod

In high-rise buildings, pipe risers must withstand a mix of forces—building movement, thermal expansion, pressure thrust, wind, and seismic loads. Get it wrong, and you risk pipe failure, costly repairs, and compliance issues. Overestimate movement, and you might end up with unnecessary, expensive expansion joints. At KUSCH, we balance precision with practicality. Our engineers ensure…

Masonry

By jarrod

One of the oldest construction methods known to man, masonry construction can provide impressive durability, but also significant risks if built without adequate design and detailing. Well known performance issues include:   Fragility under seismic loads: due to its brittle nature, masonry buildings and building elements are susceptible to damage when subjected to earthquake actions Cracking:…
