"Jed Hannon is an experienced Structural Engineer. We required two inspections, one for required paperwork and another in order to make a major structural decision. Jed provided both services. We had full confidence in Jed's professional knowledge as well as his informal advice. We would not hesitate to recommend."

"I couldn?t be happier with the architectural rendering services I received from MAJ Engineering. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and exceeded all my expectations. The team took my vision and brought it to life with stunning detail and accuracy. Every rendering was crisp, realistic, and beautifully captured the essence of the design. What impressed me most was their responsiveness and commitment to quality. They listened closely to my ideas, made thoughtful suggestions, and delivered on time?even ahead of schedule. It's clear they take great pride in their work, and it absolutely shows in the final product. If you're looking for top-tier architectural rendering that blends creativity with technical excellence, MAJ Engineering is the team to go with. I?m beyond satisfied and will absolutely be working with them again!"

"Absolutely professional. Great customer service. Nicolas was excellent at getting the measurements, getting the drawings completed, and getting the results back to me in perfect timing. I highly recommend if you need an engineer, contact RES!! Nicolas even went above and beyond when the city planning and development department threw some loops into the permitting, by contacting them and getting the results they needed quickly. Best engineer service I ever had and will use!!! Thanks to nicolas' team for getting the job done!!!!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

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 depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.

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