Class 2 Buildings – Ross Engineers Sydney

Structural Engineers working on Class 2 Buildings (residential unit blocks) in NSW must be registered as Design & Building Practitioners with the NSW Government

John Kantouros, the Director and Senior Engineer at Ross Engineers, is a registered Class 2 Building Practitioner for Drainage, Civil, Structural and Façade Engineering.

Our experience in Class 2 buildings include major alterations and additions of penthouse units to typical scenarios of wall openings between kitchen and dining rooms.

Class 2 buildings are usually multi-storey, multi-unit apartment buildings where people live above or below each other.
Class 2 may also be a single storey attached dwelling where there is a common space below such as a carpark or basement.

At Ross Engineers, we specialise in structural engineering for Class 2 buildings in New South Wales, including multi-storey residential apartment blocks and attached dwellings with shared spaces such as basements or carparks. In NSW, structural engineers working on Class 2 buildings must be registered as Design and Building Practitioners with the NSW Government to ensure compliance with legal and safety standards. Our work spans major alterations and additions, including complex penthouse renovations, as well as smaller-scale modifications such as wall openings between kitchens and dining areas. We have successfully completed projects in multi-unit apartment buildings, heritage-listed residential complexes, and modern residential developments, providing tailored residential structural engineering services that preserve architectural intent while meeting modern building standards.
