From architectural concept to structural engineering, we bring SIPs to life with speed, accuracy, and code compliance
Design & Engineering Support
From Concept to Code-Compliant Construction
Quacent offers comprehensive design and engineering services that transform your architectural ideas into precise, buildable prefab systems. Our in-house design and structural teams work closely with clients to ensure that each project is technically sound, code-compliant, and optimized for prefab manufacturing and assembly.
Tailored layouts for residential, commercial, modular, and hybrid structures. We can adapt existing plans to suit SIP or LGS systems or create new designs from scratch
Structural Engineering & Load Calculations
Full structural analysis based on local conditions (wind/snow loads, seismic zones, etc.). Our SIP and LGS systems are engineered for both load-bearing and non-load-bearing applications.
Detailed CAD Drawings
2D construction drawings and 3D models (Revit, SketchUp, AutoCAD) showing panel layouts, framing details, connection points, and utilities routing.
SIP & LGS System Integration
Every design is optimized for factory production, panelization, and rapid on-site assembly. We ensure that all wall, floor, and roof junctions are structurally sound and thermally efficient.
Code Compliance & International Standards
We align your project with relevant building codes (Eurocode, IRC, IBC, etc.), energy standards (e.g. Passive House, Net-Zero), and regional permitting requirements.
Whether you’re starting with a rough sketch or a full architectural plan, Quacent helps you develop it into a manufacturable, shippable, and buildable prefab solution
Design & Planning
From concept to construction — design smarter with Quacent.
At Quacent, we believe that every great building starts with smart design. Our Design & Planning services help transform your ideas into practical, sustainable, and aesthetically pleasing structures. Whether it’s a private home, a modular holiday park, or a large commercial development — we support the entire journey.
Smart Design, Efficient Construction
With deep expertise in prefab technologies like SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels), Light Gauge Steel (LGS), and modular shells, we ensure your design is optimizedfrom day one for production, transport, and on-site assembly.
What We Offer
