This proposal has been prepared jointly by Buro Happold and Beckett Rankine who are the engineering team responsible for the structural design and conservation works being carried out to the Cutty Sark.
Buro Happold are one of the UK’s leading firms of structural engineers. Their projects include the Great Court at the British Museum, Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, the Danish National Opera House and Ascot Racecourse redevelopment.
Beckett Rankine are one of the few specialist marine consulting engineers in the UK. Their work consists mostly of commercial and leisure port development work although they have also worked on a number of historic ship projects including La Dame de Serk at Rotherhithe, HMS President 1918 in London, Russian Submarine U475 and most recently, Polly Woodside in Melbourne, Australia.
As well as the Cutty Sark Project, Buro Happold and Beckett Rankine are also working together on the Battersea Powerstation project and Al Khiran marina in Kuwait.
