Q: What building materials are used in Neoclassical architecture?

• <div><p>Stone, marble, and brick are common building materials of Neoclassical architecture, though you will also find wood flooring and a range of natural stone tiles. Since several home styles fall under Neoclassical architects' umbrella, a range of building materials&mdash;including traditional wood framing&mdash;will make an appearance.</p></div>

Q: Can engineers provide solutions for structural problems found during inspections?

• <div><p>Yes, they offer plans for repairs or reinforcements to address issues.</p></div>

Q: What is the 10 10 rule in construction?

• <div><p>The 10 10 rule describes the formula most contractors use to determine how much to charge for a job. Allowing for 10% overhead above the total projected cost to do the work and 10% profit sets a contractor up for success, even if there are delays or other problems on the project. This formula isn&rsquo;t a hard-and-fast rule, but it is a ballpark figure to begin with when estimating your expenses on a job.</p></div>

Q: Are brick houses safer in an earthquake?

• <div><p>According to the <a href="https://www.earthquakecountry.org/step4/urmwalls/#:~:text=Houses%20built%20of%20unreinforced%20masonry,and%20the%20roof%20is%20critical.">Earthquake Country Alliance</a>&mdash;a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness&mdash;reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn&rsquo;t as stable as other building materials and methods.</p></div>

Q: Are beams and joists the same?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Bob was wonderful to work with and accepted changes To the scope of work even after he started. His pricing was fair and he has superior workmanship. He added a barn addition and replaced three barn roofs and reinforced the structure to ensure they could handle the roof.

Overall, the project went well. The engineer at CRITERIUM GILES readily agreed to clarify some of the language in the report along with providing additional expert opinion when the scope of work needed adjustment.

Bill explained in detail any deficiencies in the house and what needed to be examined by an engineer or professional in that field. I was better able to determine what would need to be fixed immediately and what could wait. It helped me budget how much I could offer for the house and what I need...

The designer seemed knowledgeable and the price was good. They asked for 1/3 of the cost upfront to get going with design and engineering. After 2 months of nothing being done they finally informed me that it could be a few more months.

"From start to finish, everything went great. Jay was thorough and answered ALL of our questions. He even reviewed the competition's proposal! The communication was fantastic every step of the way. The installation was a complicated one being that we have a 100+ year old farmhouse. Tyrese and Stephen had quite the challenge! They did a phenomenal job and really went above and beyond. They worked so hard and did an excellent job of explaining things. Five stars all day"
