"Top notch. We reached out to the company about a structural change. The support staff was amazing, reached out quickly and stayed on top of every call back. Dan came out and was very willing to answer everyone of my thousand questions, took his time, was very articulate and knowledgeable. He was on time, which is important to me, and let me know he was coming. Great company."

"Lucy provided estimates, signed contracts, and completed all the work in one week. It was amazing! The new stamped-concrete patio and sidewalk are beautiful; we couldn't be happier. Our deck is larger and has a whole new look - it looks like a brand new deck! Lucy's crew got all the work done in four days, and kept us informed every step of the way. I would highly recommend her company for any home projects you are considering."

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

Yes, unresolved damage can decrease property integrity and market value.

All foundations have footers, including monolithic slabs. In some cases, the foundation itself acts as the footer, as in the case of a floating slab and a monolithic slab. With a monolithic slab, the footers—which are just the bottom-most portion of the foundation that distributes loads down to stable soil—are a part of the main slab and are constructed with a single pour.

It's safe to assume that all exterior walls are load-bearing, or at least have load-bearing characteristics. Some older homes feature porches or bump-outs that don't rest on the home's foundation. However, they still must carry the weight of the roof section they support. Walls containing floor-to-ceiling glass or other non-structural elements must use post and beam configurations to meet load-bearing criteria.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

The process involves initial consultation, concept development, detailed planning, regulatory approvals, and integration of contractor work for project execution.
