About · Selim İtez Engineering
Three decades of structural engineering — load-bearing systems, RC frames, steel construction, deep-piled foundations and seismic rehabilitation across nine countries.
Mustafa Selim İtez founded the practice in 1993 after a decade of in-house structural work on civic and infrastructure projects in Ankara. The firm began as a small structural office and grew with each commission into a discipline-led engineering practice.
From the start, the working principle was simple: rigorous analysis, buildable details, and personal accountability on every project — from the foundation pour through to handover.
Our core competency is load-bearing systems for buildings and special structures — reinforced concrete frames, steel construction, hybrid composite floors and long-span roofs.
We deliver foundation engineering for seismic zones (deep-piled, raft, micropile), structural rehabilitation of existing buildings, and full-service technical advisory from feasibility through tender preparation.
Projects engineered from our Ankara office have reached three continents and nine countries.
