"From the start I knew Ryan was the right person, because he called me, the only one of the engineers that actually called me. He communicated regularly, let me know straight up the results and explained it all to me. Is also willing to answer questions from my contractor."
"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

"My first time using an Engineering Co. Pleased with their ability to work through, my lack of comprehension. My experience was much better than I expected. A job well done."
"The projects went amazingly well - everything was completed professionally and on time. The owner was super easy to work with and was very committed to the job - I was always kept in the loop as to progress, timelines, and budget. He conceived and designed the entire outdoor space himself, then built it over the course of several months. It was impressive and overall I am super happy with all of the work completed, which also included some bathroom remodeling, the creation of a custom framed mirror that matched the new vanity perfectly, and electrical work (adding lighting to bedrooms and replacing ceiling fans). Definitely recommend!"
"Excellent. Dan saved us money on the overall cost of the project as well as providing a more resilient structure for us. He worked hard to get the drawings done in a timely fashion. Also, he is very personable and upbeat."
Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts
Structural engineers are necessary for projects involving alterations to load-bearing structures, foundation work, and compliance with safety standards. This includes home expansions, retaining walls, and significant repairs that impact a property's integrity.
Yes, you can build over a stump if the roots are no longer alive. Living roots will continue to grow and may damage your new construction over time. Similarly, you should also remove rotting stumps because they may continue to attract pests and even cause new structures (especially those made from wood) to decompose as well.
Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.
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.
Although the two terms are closely related and often used interchangeably, pier and beam foundations and crawl spaces are different things. A pier and beam foundation is made up of concrete piers and wooden beams and creates a space under the home known as a crawl space. There are several types of foundations that create crawl spaces, often collectively known as “crawl space foundations,” but the crawl space itself is separate from the foundation.
