General description

Aronsohn was established in 1927 in the city of Rotterdam as consultant for structural engineering. The city expanded after the second world war, developing the greatest harbour in the world, and creating good conditions for the company to grow into a highly qualified independent consultancy that undertakes a broad scope of works: buildings, industrial projects and civil engineering works. Currently, Aronshon consists of 80 university graduates and other technical staff, with approximately 20 years experience, and has three offices in The Netherlands.

Our services include feasibility studies, project management, design, tendering, detailing and supervision. On occasion Aronsohn takes responsibility for all engineering requirements, including mechanical, electrical and air conditioning design and supervision. In those circumstances, Aronsohn employs the expertise of the most appropriate independent consultants in those fields, with whom they have previous experience, while still retaining overall responsibility for the complete engineering project.
Aronsohn is a member of Europengineers, an association of leading consulting engineering firms from each Western European country. The association was formed with the purpose of improving members' practices and capabilities through international cooperation.
