"The inspector contacted me prior to my appointment to get some preliminary information in preparation for our meeting. He arrived on time. We spent some time discussing my concerns about possible settling of my home's foundation and then walked through the basement and exterior. He performed a detailed inspection of the home externally and internally, taking numerous measurements. He showed me the measurements and explained his findings. It turned out, there was no serious settling or shifting of the foundation. Ultimately, his recommendation was to take no action. I appreciate his thoroughness and honesty."

"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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

Proper licensing and experience in residential and commercial structural projects.

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.

If you intend to do the majority of the work yourself, you can pay to hire an architect or a structural engineer to ensure your home remains structurally sound. They can help with the planning to make sure everything is up to code and safe for your family. On the other hand, if you’re not sure your home will be completely safe when you’ve completed the project, let a pro do the job.

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.
