Note from the CEO

I am motivated by the opportunity to apply deep structural engineering expertise in a way that creates lasting value and supports the development of the next generationof engineers. Resultant provides a platform where technical excellence, leadership, and purpose are closely aligned.

I bring more than 35 years of experience delivering complex commercial and industrial structures, including non-standard and high-consequence designs. My career has been defined by delivery of non-standard, high-consequence designs requiring sound judgment, innovation, and rigorous risk management.

I am particularly motivated by challenges that appear intractable, viewing them as opportunities to rethink assumptions and develop robust, defensible solutions.

Outside of engineering, I am a keen equestrian.

Jan Dykman

BEng (Civil)

I’m passionate about working at Resultant because it allows me to solve complex structural and dynamic problems across mining, petrochemical, and heavy industrial sectors. I specialize in turning challenging loading conditions — seismic, blast, vibration, and dynamic analysis — into practical, code-compliant solutions.

My experience includes large verification projects, dynamic and transient analyses, and computational design, where I’ve automated structural workflows using Python.

Examples

‍

Blasting and dynamic modelling of cyclone towers and CIL tanks – North Mara Gold Mine
Structural assessments of shaft infrastructure – Harmony, Anglo American, UMS
FEM and dynamic analysis of industrial structures – RSV Consulting,MUR, Barrick Gold.
Computational design projects delivering automated structural workflows and parametric tools for ship loaders, car tippers, SIMM applications, and shaft examination processes (VBA & Python)

Superpower

Combining advanced FEA, coding-driven automation, and real-world engineering judgement to translatecomplex loads into clear, code-compliant solutions.

Fun fact

I represented the University of Pretoria in cricket from 2014 to 2016, and I also competed on the university’sVarsity Esports team (Dota 2 and Rainbow Six Siege) under the banner RQ – Rage Quit.

Morné van Staden

BEng (structural)

I enjoy working at Resultant because it values technical thinking, innovation, and practical engineering solutions. Each project is an opportunity to grow, refine my design approach, and deliver safe, efficient outcomes.

I collaborated in multi-discipline industrial projects, coordinating with mechanical, civil and processengineering teams to develop efficient designs, resolve site constraints and ensure safe, compliant andmaintainable solutions.
