Buildings

At SMJ Consulting Engineers, we can offer all the technical solutions within construction, both for the public and private sectors. For many years, we have managed and been part of large construction projects in the Faroe Islands and in neighboring countries.

The construction industry is diverse, and our experience is characterized by the fact that we have participated in projects that have been of different nature, e.g. from providing consultancy to hospitals, fish farmers and power plants, to advice on new office and apartment complexes. We take great pride in ensuring that the quality of the service we offer our customers is of the highest level. We want to understand the customer, and not make the task into something it is not.

SMJ Consulting Engineers offers consultancy in many different areas of the construction project, see service offerings in the bulleted field. Recently, sustainability in the construction industry is gaining greater recognition. We continuously want to increase our knowledge within the area and can thus provide our customers with guidance and advice in this area. This way, we want to contribute to sustainability becoming a natural part of future construction projects in the Faroe Islands.

Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary collaboration, which helps to optimize the project and the service to the customer.

Bakkafrost is building a 30.000 m3 cutting edge, land-based RAS facility at Strond. The new facility is part of the new Bakkafrost strategy to rear larger smolts, up to 5-600 g, and thereby shortening the time at sea where lice and virus/bacteria can have detrimental effects on the salmon. The facility is divided into 10 separate RAS systems, from hatchery to large post smolt systems, 60 tanks in total. SMJ has been involved in most biological and technical aspects of the Strond project. In particular, SMJ has been responsible for installations, design management of installations, fire & safety systems, design and calculation for electrical and piping systems, including seawater cooling, fish transport and light simulations.
