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.

Costs depend on material choices, labor, and the extent of structural modifications.

Indications include cracks in walls, uneven floors, and sticking doors or windows that suggest foundation movements.

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

Most lenders and homeowner’s insurance companies don’t mandate a structural engineer’s inspection, so in most cases, it’s not required. However, it’s a good idea to have one done anyway to ensure you know what you’re buying. You can use the report to carry out repairs after closing or even to negotiate the sale price before closing.
