"Contacted SJW to do a structural analysis on a cantilever balcony I was adding to my home. The analysis was required by the Livingston County Building Commission. Even though I was just a homeowner and probably will never require a structural engineer in the future, Steven treated me with respect. We spent a lot of time on the phone going over my prints and options to achieve my goal. Steven was very informative and knowledgeable. What a great experience and people to work with⠦⠦ Thanks Steven!!!!!!"

"I canâ t recommend Ali enough! A neighbor recommended Ali after another structural engineer was five weeks late getting us our plan. I called Ali on a Friday and he told me he could come out on Saturday to measure and have the plans ready by Monday. He was positive, responsive, and went above and beyond answering all of my questions! It was such a great experience working with him."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Structural engineers are necessary for projects involving alterations to load-bearing structures, foundation work, and compliance with safety standards. This includes home expansions, retaining walls, and significant repairs that impact a property's integrity.

A structural engineer's report provides a professional assessment of a property's structural condition. It typically includes an evaluation of the foundation, key structural elements like roof trusses, floor joists, studs, beams, and rafters. The report will also contain a detailed description of the engineer's findings, often supported by photographs, and provide recommendations to correct any identified issues. Depending on the scope of the inspection, it might also include an assessment of property drainage, potential issues from environmental conditions like extreme weather or tree placement, and an estimated time and cost for any recommended repairs.

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.

The National Association of Home Builders requires repair of any foundation crack of more than one quarter of an inch, although local regulations may vary. In general, any visible crack that is growing in size, allowing water through, or that you have just noticed, is a good reason to call a structural engineer. Cracks can be a sign of a sinking foundation, so an inspection is a good idea for your peace of mind.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.
