Structural Engineering Translators & Interpreters – Video Remote Interpreters also available

The frequency of international collaborations between construction firms, engineers, architects and public organisations in this field means that language assistance, in the form of translators and interpreters, is often required.

At TJC Global, we offer specialist Structural Engineering translation and interpreting services for texts of all natures and conferences, meetings and other events in this field.

What sets us apart is that in addition to being gifted linguists, our translators and interpreters have years of experience and often a qualification in the field.

Their familiarity with the technical procedures and terminology relating to structural engineering ensures smooth and meaningful communication between all parties, in turn, essential to our clients’ success.

About Structural Engineering

Structural engineers design and plan structures able to withstand the forces to which they are subjected, ensuring constructions can support their weight and endure external influences such as earthquakes and floods. It is not surprising then that any worker in this sector requires in-depth technical knowledge of all related fields to ensure any new construction’s safety. The complexity of modern structures often requires a great deal of ingenuity from the engineer, particularly when incorporating new and innovative building materials and sustainable technologies into a project.

What forms of interpreter services can TJC Global provide?

Video/videoconference interpreting: (Video Remote Interpreting is also available) TJC provides language interpreting services to support events such as business meetings, conferences, legal/court/arbitration/litigation, and other online business interactions in the industry.

Participants can communicate via video or voice calls using computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, etc. These can be recorded should you wish to take minutes. Our professionally qualified interpreters can join your online virtual meeting, event, or proceeding, for example, and interpret remotely in the language pairing you require to facilitate smooth communication between all parties. They also provide relay interpreting.

Telephone/teleconference interpreting is a practical way to bridge any language barriers. The interpreter is either located remotely (away from either party) or is with one of the parties. In both cases, they deliver interpreting services through telephone conferencing.

Telephone interpretation is helpful for clients who cannot travel to their counterparts’ countries but still wish to hold business discussions or communicate progress updates. At TJC Global, we are pleased to provide professionally qualified interpreters in almost any selected language combination.

Simultaneous & Consecutive interpreting

Simultaneous interpreting (also available with Video Remote Interpretation (VRI))

is used for international conferences, critical business discussions, seminars & symposiums. In this case, two to three interpreters are usually situated in a booth, away from the audience, and take turns to interpret at high speed, changing over every 15-20 minutes to avoid fatigue and the lack of concentration, which affect the quality of interpretation.

The interpreters listen to the speaker’s message using headsets and repeat it immediately (practically “simultaneously”) in the target language to benefit relevant audience members. They also provide relay interpreting, which is helpful if the speakers give presentations in several languages.

Consecutive interpreting (also available with Video Remote Interpretation (VRI)) is the most common type. It is used for business discussions, negotiations, contract exchanges, commercial, legal and technical meetings, medical or court hearings, or on-site inspections or audits. The interpreter listens to the speaker, often making notes, and later delivers the meaning in the target language.

The interpreter may wait until a pause or the end, at which point they deliver a translation relatively quickly. Consecutive interpreting may also be used at conferences for panel discussions, Q&A sessions or private discussions between parties – at a stand or elsewhere.
