Thanks for your replies all Mike, yes I'm currently doing CAD outsourcing jobs for some other freelancers and a few local consultancies. Some of them want me do calculations as well. That's why I wanted to know what legal stuff get involved with a freelancer George, very useful information. Thank you! I'd be doing traditional house extensions and multi storey steel buildings using Tedds and Tekla SD (provided by them). Cheers

Lol yes it did... its okay Cheers

Hi Thorfun Thanks mate... the more the merrier eh Ive created a post with my query. I'd highly appreciate any advice Cheers

Hi, I've practised as a structural engineer for over 10 years. I'm not a charted engineer and don't have a Masters degree, only BEng. I started up an eCommerce business venture and doing this for full time, not working for any consultancies at the moment. Having said that though I'd like to keep in touch with Structural engineering, so I'm planning to do part time structural work as a freelancer. I'm registered with HMRC as sole trader and also registered for VAT. My question is....can I just start doing freelancing work from where I stand now or do I have to get certain others things sorted first, along with professional indemnity (PI) cover? Thanks in advance Zak

Hello I'm Zak from Nottingham. I'm a structural engineer. Just saying Hi to everyone I'm here to get some advice but I'll create a new post with my query Cheers
