"We hired Marcus at MAJ Engineering to design a new tiny home model we had in mind. He created a floorplan and a 3D animated rendering of the new model. Very impressive! He's highly recommended."

"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."

"With concerns for hidden structural hazards in my DIY Project to install a retractable awning to a lintel beam of my lanai, I reached out for structural engineering consultation. In reply from this impressive engineering company I received invaluable insights, cautions and generic steps, of which I was previously unaware, prompting me to immediately revise my project for substantial reduction of risk of adverse outcome and unexpected and unaffordable expense in this very limited budget undertaking. I strongly recommemd learning all you can before commencing with such a project, and look first to Tensor Engineering for consultation and for their deeper participation, as needed."

"During the design phase of building our new house, we could easily and quickly make changes to the layout and features. And we could see the results immediately. We used Beechwood Designs on our new house and were so impressed that we have our daughter and son-in-law using them for their design build."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

If you intend to do the majority of the work yourself, you can pay to hire an architect or a structural engineer to ensure your home remains structurally sound. They can help with the planning to make sure everything is up to code and safe for your family. On the other hand, if you’re not sure your home will be completely safe when you’ve completed the project, let a pro do the job.

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.

In many areas, advice from a structural engineer or an architect will be required by your building department before you can remove a wall, but even if it’s not necessary, it’s a good idea. Accidentally removing a load-bearing wall—even if a general contractor advises that it’s safe—can cause major structural damage, putting you and your family at risk and potentially costing thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in property damage.
