Our Managing Director, Matteo Tirapelle, released an interview this week for National Engineer Australia Create Magazine. Matteo talked about his passion for civil engineering and the process that brought him to open his own business: he liked the flexibility and freedom that came with it.
One of the main aspects that Matteo wanted to focus on during the interview is innovation, and more specifically sustainability.
“I tried to really innovate with high-rise buildings, which I couldn’t do where I was before,” he says. “And we did, we really innovated in high-rise design in Australia.”
Indeed, his idea of sustainability has been put in practice through impressive reductions of materials in buildings and cost savings. This has been beneficial not just for Hera Engineering’s clients but also for the environment.
“We ended up designing the tallest tower in Brisbane, the tallest tower in Canberra, and the tallest residential building in Perth, and we’re doing the fourth-tallest tower in the Gold Coast.”
Hera Engineering with a team of 25 is now one of the most influential structural engineering companies nationally and specifically in Western Australia and and we are really proud of this success.
