"We were lucky to find Kian Architecture to help draw up some life safety plans for a newly constructed exhibit at the National Aviation Hall of Fame in Dayton, Ohio. We were building a permanent structure within a larger gallery space and Brian helped us identify the codes we needed to comply with. He was very patient with us explaining all of the intricacies of the building codes. Brian talked us through options for modifying our design to comply with codes. We had a tight timeline and he was on top of it to help meet all deadlines. Thank you Brian and Kian Architecture!"

"Our 1950's bath was literally crumbling apart. J&M started with a complete demo of the space. James and crew than started building a new bathroom with the materials I had purchased. I had originally planned to do a DIY project. I found J&M on Angie's list. I am certain that I could not have completed the project in the same time with and with the same quality. The space has been transformed into a custom bath. Thank you! J&M Construction.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

Foundation cracks that are 1/8 inch wide or less, aren’t uneven across the gap, and don’t continue widening over time are usually just normal settling cracks and don’t suggest structural issues. Horizontal cracks and stair-step cracks on foundation walls, any cracks that continue widening, are wider than 1/8 inch, or where one side juts out beyond the other, are often indicative of structural damage.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
