"I had a small amount of water seepage in my basement and I wanted the expertise of a structural engineer to evaluate the possible cause(s) and to recommend remediation approaches. Glenwood Engineering was prompt to contact me as soon as a match was made and a structural engineer came to do a visual field visit. He identified a couple of causes and gave recommendations, giving priority to the easier solution first, observe the results and then if necessary, try the more radical solution. I feel that the suggestions were reasonable and appropriate. I paid for a written report which included photos taken on-site. I feel like I had a good experience."

"Communication with the owner of the company was very haphazard. It was a trial getting through the initial phase of scheduling the owner to come out then getting a reply back from him. However, the engineer who eventually came out to assess my issue was very prompt and professional. I would definitely work with him again."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.

Dormers must be able to bear the load of their own construction and the added window. The style of the dormer, however, will determine where the weight loads onto your home's structure. A gable dormer bears the weight on the side walls whereas a shed dormer bears it on the front walls.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

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