"We needed some advice on a structural engineering concern arising during a kitchen renovation and we needed it fast and simple to understand. Azzam was able to come to our house fairly quickly and provide both a diagnosis of the problem and some some reasonable solution options that were practical and doable. He was able to simply answer all my questions in a way that a non structural engineer could understand. I highly recommend Triple J Consulting"

"I had the pleasure of working with Mark from Bartel Engineering on my attic conversion project, and I couldn't be more impressed with the project plans he provided. Mark demonstrated a high level of expertise and professionalism throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the final delivery of the project plans, Mark's attention to detail was evident. He took the time to thoroughly understand my vision for the attic conversion and translated it into comprehensive and well-thought-out plans. His expertise in structural engineering ensured that the plans not only met my aesthetic preferences but also adhered to the highest safety and structural standards. Mark's communication skills were commendable. He kept me informed at every stage of the planning process, explaining technical details in a way that was easy to understand. He was receptive to my feedback and made adjustments promptly, ensuring that the final plans perfectly aligned with my expectations."

"I needed someone to provide pushback against the local permitting department. I was told I needed a structural engineer to inspect the deck and that is what happened. I got constructive input on deck problems from the consultant and the permitting department backed off and started working with me. I view this as a success. The consultant communicates well and seems very knowledgeable."

David was on time and very professional. He spent an appropriate amount of time evaluating the 2 areas we had requested. He documented the inspection w/ photos, measurements, and sketches. He provided a verbal preliminary report and is to provide a written final report w/ specifications for the mods we are proposing. (Removing a wall upstairs and a post downstairs.) We were happy to hear that our mods were going to be less complicated than originally thought and consequently less expensive. We have the peace of mind that the proposed changes are structurally sound and will be done correctly.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Structural engineers draw structural plans, which include detailed drawings of the structural components of a home only. Complete house plans will require additional work from an architect or draftsperson, whose drawings will take the structural drawings into account. They’ll also include more details about the finishing materials and layout of a home, including everything from roofing and flooring materials to the position of furniture, light fixtures, switches, and plumbing fixtures.

Absolutely, as it ensures designs are viable and won’t compromise structural integrity.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.

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.
