Rickard Engineering

Charles Rickard is one of Australia’s most sought-after engineers who has built a solid reputation through delivering quality, trust and innovation within his field. In 1984, Charles moved to Australia and set up Rickard and Partners Pty Ltd, subsequently known as Bonacci Rickard, then Rickard Hails Moretti Pty Ltd. Over a period of 22 years, the company offered civil, structural, facade and building diagnostic consultancy services in two divisions, while utilising the very latest in design and drafting computer technology. The new company enjoyed an annual turnover in excess of $3M, with clients covering the public and private sector and project values ranging up to $200 million. In June 2004, Rickard Hails Moretti Pty Ltd split their engineering and diagnostics work into two separate businesses. Charles progressively reduced his involvement in both to occasional consultancy and reference up to December 2006. After eight years as a sole trader, Charles opened a new office as RH Consulting Engineers, located at 121 Military Road, Neutral Bay. The aim of the company is to provide a compact, highly professional team focussed on a standard of service no longer generally available in the market. In August 2016, in order to highlight his skill base internationally, the company now trades as Rickard Engineering.
