"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!"

"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."

"So far we are very pleased with CAG. Ken is a very easy going and delightful young man. He has already had us meet with a contractor who is also very easy to work with. We are in the very early stages of our project and look forward to working with both of these gentlemen. I see no reason, at this time, to expect anything but a very good ralationship with quality service."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

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.

Generally, you can tell if a home is bolted to the foundation by checking the foundation for plates. If you see that your foundational plates connect to wood or bolts protruding from them, this means that you have a bolted foundation. However, it's always wise to bring a home inspector in to confirm if your foundation is secure.

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
