I have 13 years of experience in structural engineering and a solid background in the construction industry. For the past four years, I have been involved in forensic engineering with an emphasis in foundation failure analysis. I am licensed in the State of Colorado as a Professional Engineer.\n\nUnfortunately, we live in an area where swelling soils is a common problem. Clay soil or claystone bedrock will attract and absorb moisture causing them to swell in volume. Hence, the name swelling soils. This phenomenon may result in minor to severe damage to a home�s foundation due to movement. Wall and/or ceiling drywall cracking and problems with doors may be an indication of foundation problems. If you are experiencing these conditions, I can help assess the situation and give you opinions that will help you reach an informed decision. \n\nFoundation problems are my specialty and the only type of work I do. I can help you understand what is happening to cause your foundation problems and advise you on your best course of action. In addition, foundation companies make their money by selling you piers; I can review their proposal and give you guidance.\n\n

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.
