The Story / From humble beginnings

A career built on structures that last.

Tendaivanhu Madzikanda earned a BSc (Honours) in Civil Engineering in 1990. He passed the Institution of Structural Engineers examination in 1994, and was admitted as a Chartered Engineer through the Institution of Engineers, Europe, in 1995. He is a registered Professional Engineer with the Engineering Council of South Africa, and a corporate member of the UK Institution of Structural Engineers.

Over more than three decades, his work has spanned low and high rise buildings, bridges and major structural engineering. From humble beginnings, he built a practice that competes with the largest firms, on the strength of professional engineering done properly.

Today he founds and leads two companies, an international civil and structural engineering firm and a property development company, operating across South Africa, Zimbabwe and Rwanda, with ambitions reaching into the United States.

Excellence through professional engineering. Your wish is our command.

Two companies, one standard of work.

From the infrastructure a region runs on to the homes a community grows in. Built to the same brief: do it properly, make it last.
