"In progress. However, I can already review the work being done for us by Studio 27. This is the first time we have need to consult with an architect with our building project. We first met with three different local firms, listened to their proposals and attempted to select the best firm for our tasks. Studio 27 had the technical knowledge to complete any tasks, Mo was a good listener, very proficient with design technology and personally visit our home on several occasions. The results are now in progress. We are very pleased with his work and communication skills. I would not hesitate to use his services again"

"Got a great preliminary design and budget that I could use to evaluate my project. They made it work with the land and gave me the best home layout and kept the great view! AAM was quick and also was able to put me in contact with others to support my project. They have a lot of contacts and can make things happen in the Las Vegas area."

"I was looking for someone to handle blueprints and engineering for a home in the Florida Keys. Having built homes before, I’m familiar with the process and already had some sketches with a few changes I wanted to make. I found Evolution Drafting online, and Kristine walked me through everything clearly. Lindsey was assigned to my project after a quick introduction and a follow up she was AMAZING to say the least! The initial drawings were excellent, and any changes I requested were completed within days. Compared to another project that took nearly a year, this was incredibly fast and detailed. My wife and I are very impressed. I highly recommend Evolution Drafting LLC—ask for Lindsey on your project. Truly top shelf!!"

"After getting a couple of estimates, Sin 2 Son Contracting had the best reviews for the best price. On their initial visit, father and son owners quoted me $1000 for materials and labor.......well-anchored, translucent panels on a 20X10 structure with a scalloped edge on one side. Additionally, they angled the panels for rain drainage. On the hottest day of the year, thus far, Robbie and Joseph worked hard, fast, and efficiently to install the covering.......including moving wiring from a flood light to the “future location”of a fan. Spur of the moment, I decided I wanted the fan NOW and the guys agreed to install it if I made a quick run to Home Depot and returned with the fan before they finished their construction and clean up. I knew I was asking a lot, and was very impressed with their willingness to take on the added dimension to the project......with absolutely no push-back or hesitancy. As afternoon temperatures rose, Robbie and Joseph installed the fan, cleaned up, and left me as a very happy and satisfied customer. Going above and beyond, and doing quality work, prompts this 5 Star recommendation. Next time I need any type of construction, I will definitely contact Sin 2 Son Contracting."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.

On average, 6 inches of concrete can hold around 150 pounds per square foot, but the exact weight that 6 inches of concrete can hold depends on factors such as the type of concrete, the reinforcement method, soil conditions below, and structural design. If you’re concerned about the longevity of your concrete patio, walkway, or driveway, hire a professional to help you choose an appropriate concrete thickness and reinforcement method for your needs.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
