"I hired Carlos with Engineer Local Xperts to design my new home built. He was really knowledgeable as far as finding creative ways to cut down on the cost. Carlos was always available even after hours which was great to have. Construction is stressful especially when you just see money signs fly out the window but Carlos was always able to provide feedback and solutions throughout the construction process. I will definitely use this company for any future projects!"

"Metro Construction is an all around fabulous company to work with!!  They replaced our roof in July 2013.  The sales person, project manager and crew were all around professional and wonderful to work with.  The work was done in a timely and well manner.  Since last summer we have contracted with Metro again to replace all of the windows in our home this spring and paint the exterior of our home this summer.  The windows are very good quality and the price was very comparable to the other bids we received.  The crew that installed the windows did a great job and again were very professional and cleaned up very well after the job was done.  The paint crew that painted our home were very meticulous and detailed.  I would definitely recommend Metro Construction to any one needing home renovations done!

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.

On average, 6 inches of concrete can hold around 150 pounds per square foot, but the exact weight that 6 inches of concrete can hold depends on factors such as the type of concrete, the reinforcement method, soil conditions below, and structural design. If you’re concerned about the longevity of your concrete patio, walkway, or driveway, hire a professional to help you choose an appropriate concrete thickness and reinforcement method for your needs.

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.

A freestanding brick wall that's only one brick thick can usually stand six to eight feet high. If you need a higher wall, it should be at least two bricks thick for adequate stability, and it might require a footing to support the added weight. Additionally, some areas have regulations and codes dictating how high a brick wall can be, so check with local code enforcers to ensure your proposed wall complies with any regulations.

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support
