I am a licensed Professional Engineer providing structural engineering services for residential and small commercial projects. I work with homeowners, contractors, and design professionals to help move projects through the permit process by providing structural calculations, drawings, evaluations, and engineering letters as needed.\n\nIn-person structural inspections are available in Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia. Remote structural consulting is available in Delaware and North Carolina.\n\nTypical projects include load-bearing wall removal, beam and header sizing, additions, decks, foundation concerns, and framing evaluations. My goal is to provide practical, code-compliant structural solutions that are clear, efficient, and tailored to the project.

"Tony showed up five minutes early and I immediately started throwing my perception of contractors out of the window.  Tony took me through every aspect of the house giving me ideas of what I should do, what I shouldn't do, costs of each project and how to save money throughout the process.  You know when you're buying a product and the salesmen is going to answer every one of your questions in the way that will cause you to spend more money?? I didn't get that perception at all with Tony.  He was honest, even if it could possibly be a detriment to gaining him business.  He went over his credentials, experiences and history with older houses.  I explained to him how safety in regards to possible lead paint and asbestos were my priority as I will be living in the house and he outlined everything he would do if it was his own personal residence.  The thing I like about Structures By Design (and they should use this in their marketing) is that they really make you feel, and judging by their reviews, they actually do, treat any project as if they were doing it to their own homes. 
Reasons why I will choose Tony first for all work:
-He has a ton of expierence in the Buena Vista area with these older houses, I don't think there is anyone more qualified around here in regards to working with homes built in this part of the state.
-He is the ONLY contractor I've encountered that doesn't answer questions you ask for their benefit, that honesty is unprecedented in this type of business.
-Judging from the quality of their work on the internet, Angies List and articles I've read, their work is all about quality with price effectiveness thrown in there.  Long story short, it sounds like you get a lot of BANG for your buck.
I highly encourage anyone that needs some type of renovation done to their home to consult Tony before making any decisions, but that's just if you want it done right.

"Saw display at home and garden show.  Researched product and company, then ordered 4X4 shelter via telephone.  Company provided additional details about testing and certification IAW FEMA standards upon request.  Delivery and installation were on time and as promised."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.

Yes, professionals reinforce the foundation with additional supports or piers to prevent future sinking.

The depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.
