"Mr Kamal Essaid completed a structural on-site inspection for a detached structure at my home . He was very professional from the time we spoke on the phone . He scheduled the inspection and showed up exactly the time that was set . From start to finish he completed the inspection and advised an abundance of knowledge while he completed it . He provided the reports when he said it would be ready with no hesitation . I highly recommend him and will use him again for all my engineering needs. Thank you Kamal !"

"Jeremy was great to work with and very detailed and professional with his review of my homeâ s structure as well as the report he provided. Based on his findings I did have work done on my 62 year old home foundation to hopefully insure I get another 62. Thank you Jeremy!"

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.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

A 4-inch-thick concrete slab can support around 4,000 pounds per square foot if a contractor reinforces the slab with rebar, while that same slab without reinforcements will support closer to 1,000 pounds. For the purposes of a patio, 4 inches in thickness without reinforcement should suffice unless you’re installing heavy kitchen equipment or a hot tub on it. In those cases, reinforcing your slab and sticking with 4 inches of thickness should provide plenty of strength.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

Most lenders and homeowner’s insurance companies don’t mandate a structural engineer’s inspection, so in most cases, it’s not required. However, it’s a good idea to have one done anyway to ensure you know what you’re buying. You can use the report to carry out repairs after closing or even to negotiate the sale price before closing.
