We are a small structural consulting engineering firm founded by Alfred Lopez in 1971. For many years, Al worked alone and developed a strong reputation for someone who could make things work. Our design philosophy is that there is a solution to every problem. This reputation has been passed on by Al to the rest of the Lopez Engineering Design team. Lopez Engineering relies on a "word of mouth" campaign instead of formal advertising thus keeping overhead to a minimum.

"It went really well. They did what I wanted them to do."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Squeaky floors don’t always mean structural damage. Usually, it’s caused by friction somewhere inside your floor—whether it’s a loose floorboard or a gap between the subfloor and joists. If there is structural damage, you’ll notice other signs like soft or sagging floors, cracks that go from the wall to the ceiling, and horizontal cracks on your foundation.

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

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Yes, you can build over a stump if the roots are no longer alive. Living roots will continue to grow and may damage your new construction over time. Similarly, you should also remove rotting stumps because they may continue to attract pests and even cause new structures (especially those made from wood) to decompose as well.

The standard thickness for an LVL beam is between 1.75 inches and 7 inches. However, you can order LVL beams in non-standard sizes as well. When you work with a contractor, they can source beams that are the appropriate size for your project for you after assessing your blueprints.
