"Great work; did a thorough job of repairing front porch red brick steps/stoop that were literally falling apart in pieces. The crew cleaned old mortar from existing bricks and reused all that were salvageable. Did not rush the job, and left the area clean afterwards. Owner stayed in communication throughout the project, immediately notified me when there would be a delay due to circumstances beyond his control (weather, staff out sick). Price bid for project was reasonable, certainly worth the quality of work done. Would certainly hire again and refer to others."

"I had 816 residential construction place 5 anchors in my finished basement wall. Their work was exceptional. Their crew kept the mess to a minimum both inside and outside. After they were done, besides the cuts in the sheetrock, you could not tell they had been there. The 5 holes in my yard were perfect rectangles and they carried off the excess dirt. I was impressed with their company from the beginning through completion. Communication was great and the crew was top notch. I highly recommend Them for you foundation work."

"It went very well. Two very professional employees arrived at the agreed upon time. The owner joined them later in the morning and helped them finish up. They spent about 7 hours completing the job, which was the estimated amount of time we were advised it would take. They did a nice job of cleaning up the work area before leaving for the day. There was no mess left behind. We also had a friend who had used Midland Concrete Leveling to mudjack their driveway and they were also pleased with the work and price."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.

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.

A freestanding brick wall that's only one brick thick can usually stand six to eight feet high. If you need a higher wall, it should be at least two bricks thick for adequate stability, and it might require a footing to support the added weight. Additionally, some areas have regulations and codes dictating how high a brick wall can be, so check with local code enforcers to ensure your proposed wall complies with any regulations.

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

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.
