"As the Career Coordinator for Mt. Auburn Preparatory Academy, I had the pleasure of working with Brian. Before starting expansion for our career center, I researched architects through Angi's list to ensure we would receive a top-notch architecture firm. I am pleased to recommend Brian and the Kian Architecture Firm wholeheartedly. I was impressed by this firm's professionalism, attention to detail, and promptness. Communication is important when dealing with changes, as they take place on every project, and this firm was on point every step of the way. Brian exceeded my expectations! We were truly pleased with our result, and they remained in constant contact with us throughout the project. Highly recommend them for your next construction project!"

"Trino and his two men worked well and got the whole kitchen done in a timely way. The work was VERY good and can recommend them for your job. This was to repkace the flooring, add a couple electric lines, run a waterline across the floor to new fridge, install new cabinetry and paint the walls! Bob"

"Work went well. Crew arrived when scheduled and on time. Seemed very professional, friendly, and conscientious. They showed me what they were doing and how the piers would be installed. I gathered 5 quotes for the job and they were the most professional/competitive of everyone I spoke with and I was not disappointed. Only minor complaint would be that it seemed the grading on the back fill was left a bit high. I was told it would settle, but I doubt it will settle that much. Not a big deal--I would still highly recommend them."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Most structural engineers offer free quotes, regardless of the size of the job. For simple inspections when buying or selling a home, engineers typically charge a flat fee that may be based solely on your home’s foundation type and square footage. For larger projects, like new construction and major home renovations, an engineer will either perform an analysis of your project and site and provide you with a formal estimate, or they will do a more in-depth assessment and in-person site inspection before coming up with a per-hour or per-project cost estimate. In most cases, the estimate is free.

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. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.
