I am a professional engineer who has expertise in residential structural engineering, home inspection, architectural engineering, and building codes. I get involved in projects where professional structural engineering considerations are involved or that were unveiled during home inspections. I can also perform home inspections as a professional engineer. I am an expert in all building codes and can convey pathways to building code compliance to contractors and homeowners. I perform design work as an architectural engineer (similar to an architect). If a project involves only plans and not a site presence, I can perform work for the entire state and surrounding states. I am a licensed engineer in 34 states.

"I am currently in the process of removing a load bearing wall for my home. I reached out to John P Stoppi for assistance with a support load calculation and sizing of a clear span beam. John was very helpful throughout the whole process."

Structural Engineering 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.

Any issue that affects the structural integrity or soundness of a home is considered a structural issue. In addition to foundation cracks, other signs of structural issues include roof leaks, bowing walls, sloping floors, gaps around windows and doors, and more.

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.

Proper licensing and experience in residential and commercial structural projects.

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.
