12 Arup has an honest and open proactive culture, working to achieve the best total solution for our clients. Our range of skills and capabilities frequently go beyond the direct needs of an individual project but benefit all through the understanding and abilities they provide.

Sir Ove Arup was an engineer and a philosopher, the founder of Arup and the source of our firm’s values. He believed wholeheartedly in total design and advocated the social usefulness of engineers. His lasting legacy is the positive impact Arup makes on the built environment and for us, this means to shape a better world.

13 Arup unites a global network of inventive Building and highly skilled building engineers and design specialists. Together, we are best design known for helping to shape ambitious buildings.

What defines a building’s performance will depend on its purpose. Listening to the things that make an asset valuable to our clients, and to their buildings’ users, gives direction to our designs. Behind the better performance of our building designs, lies Arup’s sophisticated approach to building information modelling (BIM), building physics and fluid dynamics.

With world-class expertise – creative and technical – we help to realise buildings that are better because they are more useful and attractive to the people who own and inhabit them, more sympathetic to their context and more commercially sustainable.

Building information modelling (BIM) Building information modelling (BIM), is transforming the way that we design cities, buildings and systems to perform throughout their entire life cycle.

We build on Arup’s long history of integrated working to shape BIM as a positive collaborative method. At its best, this method allows information to flow freely – between architects, engineers, technical specialists, owners and operators – to promote productive, open working relationships.

Using modelling for more joined-up working is helping our teams worldwide to reduce design conflicts, to produce more efficient designs and to fast-track schedules, to optimise layouts, even in tight spaces and to align efforts to achieve greater energy-efficiency.

Façade engineering

A building’s skin can define its value, performance and architectural expression. Façades and building envelopes – which form the outer skins of buildings – are not only expressing the project image and creative intent but also influencing significantly the building’s embodied energy and operational energy consumption. A thoughtfully designed skin can make a new building work more effectively for its owners, occupants and environment.

Arup’s approach is based on ingenuity: everything we do, from concept design to implementation and renovation, is design- led and underpinned by technical rigour such as advanced 3D modelling technology and energy, thermal or daylighting simulations. Arup works with building owners and architects to develop façades that encourage productive building occupants by providing comfortable internal environments. We also collaborate with contractors and manufacturers to develop new façade technologies and products.

35 Total Design Engineering is central to human progress – almost nothing is in the invented without it – and our digital age founder, Sir Ove Arup, was an extraordinary engineer who was deeply concerned with that progress.

His vision for the role of engineering in design and of design in engineering was shaped by humanistic, rather than simply technical, principles. This breadth of vision has inspired generations to pursue the art and science of Total Design in our firm.

The purpose of the firm founded by Ove has remained constant over the ensuing 70 years. Today, by uniting Right design, engineering and technology under the ‘Total Design’ Sydney Opera House, Sydney philosophy, we continue to transform and shape Bottom Bay area in Singapore a better world.
