Home/Disciplines
Disciplines
The name Kinetra brings together civil, structural, electrical and mechanical engineering, so a project is planned as one system rather than in separate silos
Dams, roads, bridges, drainage and site works that prepare the ground for everything built on it
Analysis and design of concrete and steel structures for gravity, wind and seismic loads
Coordination of power infrastructure, from substations and transmission lines to renewable plants
Plant and equipment integration, turbine halls and the structures that support moving machinery
In detail
The ground, water and access that every project depends on. Civil works set the levels, carry the water away and get people and equipment to site.
The frame that carries every load safely to the ground. This is the core of the practice: 24 years of analysis and design in concrete and steel.
Power has to be generated, transformed and carried. These assets rely on civil and structural work as much as on electrical design.
Machines move, vibrate and need to be maintained. The structures around them must allow for that.
Integrated delivery
Most problems on site start at the boundaries between disciplines. Planning them together removes those gaps early.
Fewer clashes
Faster decisions
Lower risk

About
Kinetra is led by C.K. (Chollangi Kesavachandra), principal engineer with 24 years of experience and more than 30 projects delivered across six countries
Who we are
Kinetra is led by C.K., a civil structural engineer with 24 years of experience and more than 30 delivered projects across six countries.
His technical foundation is a Master's degree in Structural Engineering, built on an undergraduate degree in Civil Engineering. A Strategic Management programme at IIM Lucknow adds the commercial side: how engineering decisions affect cost, programme and risk.
That combination lets Kinetra work across the full arc of a project, from early concept options and analysis to detailed design, review and site support.

In detail
Analysis of gravity, wind and seismic actions, with members and foundations designed in reinforced concrete and steel.
Residential, commercial and industrial structures, and the civil works that serve them.
A fresh look at an existing design to reduce material, cost and programme without giving up performance.
Independent checking of calculations and drawings by an engineer who was not part of the original design.
Drawings and specifications that contractors can price, order and build from without guesswork.
Leading design teams and coordinating with architects, other engineers, clients and contractors.
Ways to engage
Kinetra acts as the engineer of record through every stage of the project.
A second set of eyes on another engineer's design before it is issued or built.
Focused input on a specific problem, option study or decision.

Home/International
International
Projects delivered in India, the UAE, Qatar, Australia, New Zealand and the USA
Where we've worked
Each country brings its own design codes, materials and construction culture. The engineering principles stay the same; how they are applied adapts to the place.
Moving between national design codes and their load, material and detailing rules
Systems chosen for local wind, seismic and soil conditions
Clients, consultants and contractors across languages, time zones and contract forms
Design environments
Every country has its own codes. These are the standards typically used for structural design in each one.
IS codes from the Bureau of Indian Standards, such as IS 456 for concrete and IS 800 for steel
Local authority regulations, commonly alongside British, European and American design codes
Qatar Construction Specifications with British, European and American design codes
Australian Standards, such as the AS/NZS 1170 loading series and AS 3600 for concrete
New Zealand Standards, such as NZS 3101 for concrete, with AS/NZS 1170 for loads
American codes and standards such as ASCE 7 for loads, ACI 318 for concrete and AISC 360 for steel

Home/Process
Process
Six stages, each with clear inputs, outputs and a check before moving on
Compare schemes for cost, span, speed and architectural fit
Model gravity, wind and seismic actions and check stability
Size members, connections and foundations to the governing code
Drawings, schedules and specifications for tender and construction
Independent checks of calculations and drawings before issue
Site queries answered, critical works inspected, changes approved
Stage by stage
Explore structural schemes and pick the one that best balances cost, span, speed and architectural fit.
Build the analysis model and check how the structure behaves under gravity, wind and seismic actions.
Size the members, connections and foundations to the governing code.
Produce the drawings, schedules and specifications for tender and construction.
Check calculations and drawings independently before anything is issued.
Support the contractor on site until handover.
