Hyland Consulting Engineering are specialist engineers for structural, seismic, fire, and failure issues, and other complex building challenges
Located in Central Auckland, and working with clients across New Zealand and Australia
Hyland Consulting Engineering is an Auckland-based engineering consultancy with over 30 years of specialist experience. We provide structural, seismic / earthquake, fire safety, and fatigue/fracture/forensic engineering services for new builds, existing structures, and damaged buildings - supporting everything from smart, code-compliant building design to retrofit strategies, technical investigations and expert witness reporting.
Clients come to us when the stakes are high and the problems aren’t straightforward. We offer technical depth, clear communication, and reliable judgement across all stages of a project. Our team works methodically, using advanced tools like ABAQUS CAE, to assess performance, identify causes of failure, and develop safe, compliant solutions. We’re known for our thoughtful approach, strong collaboration, and ability to deliver answers that help you move forward with confidence.
Our structural engineers help ensure your building is safe, compliant, and built to perform. From assessing complex load paths to resolving construction defects, we combine practical knowledge with advanced analysis to support new developments, upgrades, and investigations.
Whether it's cracked welds, broken bolts, or full-scale collapses, we diagnose the causes of failure in structural elements. Failure engineers bring clarity to complex problems, guiding remediation and supporting legal or insurance outcomes with expert advice and reporting.
Hyland Consulting Engineering delivers seismic assessments, retrofit designs, and performance modelling for both existing and new buildings. Whether it’s a 20-storey tower or a heritage structure, our seismic engineers help safeguard life, protect assets, and achieve code compliance.
Our advanced structural analyses using real fire inputs allow us to customise passive fire protection of steelwork and concrete elements and thermal movement allowances in attached fire separation walls. This best ensures that designated fire cells in buildings perform their critical functions of allowing people to escape and buildings to survive during fires.
