Welcome to the Train and Kemp website...
Train and Kemp are consulting structural engineers, civil engineers and environmental scientists specialising in building structures, infrastructure, brownfield regeneration, and sustainability.
The services that we provide are client-specific and focus on engineering solutions that add value through the provision of appropriate advice. This advice is based upon the principles of buildability, safety and economy, and in many cases it goes beyond the boundaries of engineering.
Announcements for 2018 & onwards
We are delighted to announce that from November 2017 Greg Tyldesley will become a Principal at Train & Kemp LLP. Greg has been with the practice since joining as a Project Engineer in 2007. He became an Associate in 2011 and is a key member of the Train & Kemp team. He has completed numerous successful refurbishment projects in both commercial and residential sectors and has extensive experience of new-build residential projects.
Together with this news, we can announce that founder Norman Train is taking the opportunity to scale back his involvement with the practice. Whilst still providing his skill and expertise as a Principal, he will transition to a consultant role with a 3-day week allowing him to spend more time with his family. Throughout his career Norman has been actively involved in many areas of the engineering profession from geotechnical and environmental work to appearing as an expert witness and of course becoming the 90th President of the Institution of Structural Engineers in 2010.
Everyone at Train & Kemp is extremely grateful for all that Norman continues to contribute and we wish him all the best for this next phase of his career. Principals Marc and Terry are sure with Greg stepping up and Norman’s continued role that Train & Kemp will see the start of a new, successful chapter for the company.
