Dave Rayment
Dave founded Rayment Structures and has more than 25 years’ experience in the design and assessment of building structures.
Having started his career as a design engineer at Alan Baxter & Associates, Dave gained an excellent grounding, working with existing and historic structures. He went on to work at Price & Myers and AKT II where he worked on prestigious and innovative projects including the East Beach Café in Littlehampton, the Diamond Bridge at the Queen Elizabeth Park and the Turner Contemporary Gallery in Margate. At Morph Structures Dave grew a design studio which won numerous awards for projects delivered using their innovative and collaborative approach.
Dave believes in combining imaginative thinking with a practical and rigorous attention to detail. He is known for his hands-on approach to design, pushing the limits of engineering whilst always keeping an eye on the practical details and buildability. Whilst complex problems sometimes require complex solutions, Dave strongly believes that taking the time to fully interrogate and understand problems will often yield the simplest and most cost-effective solutions.
In 2023 he was appointed as a Design Review Panel Member for Islington Council.
Dave regularly tutors at universities and has written for industry publications. Dave has judged various awards including for the Civic Trust and Structural Timber Association.
