Here at Vulcan Design & Construction, Inc. we believe in using our business as a tool to inspire and implement solutions to environmental concerns and to supporting our Veterans.

"It took forever to start. We were already upset with the company even before work started but we couldn?t back out. Their vehicles repeatedly blocking neighbors, material delivery blocking very important access to our garage, design change to stairway suggested by their designer is a constant headache. The deck wasn?t the right size. Project manager rarely supervised work and was repeatedly done incorrectly. They even had to tear off the surface and start over a couple times. They used wood that was already splintered. They kept adding money to the final total and expected payment immediately but when they owed us they had no record of the proper calculations. The backyard was a muddy mess because they started during the rainy season even though that?s when the project should?ve been finished according to their timeline. We signed the contract in May. Unhappy with the current state. The permit is still open and they ignore contact from the city. "

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

The difference between a lintel and a beam is what loads each is responsible for supporting. A lintel is a type of beam that is responsible only for supporting the load above an opening, such as a window or door, and transfers the weight to the side walls around an opening. A beam supports the slab and transfers the load to nearby columns, which then disperse the load to the ground.

Most projects take 1-4 weeks, depending on material sourcing, design intricacy, and required finishing treatments like powder coating or galvanization.

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)

Beams made out of traditional lumber can often only span 8 to 12 feet without requiring vertical supports, so if you want a wider opening to create a more open floor plan, you might need an LVL beam. LVL beams can span up to around 30 feet without the need for load-bearing walls or vertical supports underneath, making them a better option for keeping your home as open and airy as possible.
