"Brian and his group at Kian Architecture have been a reliable and trusted partner on building projects for the past 3 years. Our relationship started with a high-end residential, new construction building in Miami where a tight timeline, code compliance obstacles, and complex design strategies were all in play; Brian and his team nailed it. I hope to continue working with Kian and refer them regularly for commercial/residential projects because I'm sure my clients are going to get a high quality experience and a firm that executes reliably."

"Ben was awesome! He made sure everything was exactly what I wanted in my new bathroom. He even helped with other projects I had around the house. Any time I had questions he made sure to explain exactly what he was doing and was very friendly. He is the only person I’ll be calling when I need work done in the future!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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’t a hard-and-fast rule, but it is a ballpark figure to begin with when estimating your expenses on a job.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Costs depend on material choices, labor, and the extent of structural modifications.

The best way to determine if ceiling cracks are structural is to hire a ceiling contractor to inspect the cracks and provide a professional opinion. That said, you might be able to make an educated guess based on the size and appearance of the crack. Larger cracks, cracks accompanied by sagging or discoloration, and cracks that travel from the ceiling down the walls are all signs of structural issues.
