"We called Rick to discuss installing an addition to our home for a garage, master bedroom, and master bathroom.  We also requested quotes on fixing some exterior items included soffits, fascia, gutters, installing a deck, paving the driveway.
Rick was extremely friendly and responsive.  He is very professional and knowledgeable about his field.  We went through a couple of options and then decided on what was expected to be the cheapest option.  Rick built the plans for approval.  This process took longer than expected: was supposed to be about 30 days but went well over 60.  Not a concern for us because we are willing to wait for proper planning for a large project.
We got the plans, drawings, and scope which only cost us $1500.  They are nice and thorough plans that could be used if we were to move forward with the project with Rick or anyone else.  They were nicely done.
We chose not to go forward with the project because the quote in the end was more than double the original discussion.  It would price our home out of its market and was unexpectedly high.
Rick is a very nice, professional engineer who is thorough with his work.  The price quote was just so high it wasn't even worth starting a negotiation to us.  If you use Rick for plans or drawings, we highly recommend him.

"Ed responded to our request for a structural engineer consult very quickly, and was able to come out and give us a consult within 2 hours (and on a Saturday). His assessment of the detached garage walls of a home we are about to buy provided both us and the sellers much more peace of mind in moving forward with the deal; he provided options that would likely be more permanent (which is what we wanted) and cost less to repair, and represented the objective opinion we needed. All the contractors we had talked to were just confusing and upsetting us with differing recommendations and cost estimates. We highly recommend Ed Brenkus..."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

Stone, marble, and brick are common building materials of Neoclassical architecture, though you will also find wood flooring and a range of natural stone tiles. Since several home styles fall under Neoclassical architects' umbrella, a range of building materials—including traditional wood framing—will make an appearance.

All foundations have footers, including monolithic slabs. In some cases, the foundation itself acts as the footer, as in the case of a floating slab and a monolithic slab. With a monolithic slab, the footers—which are just the bottom-most portion of the foundation that distributes loads down to stable soil—are a part of the main slab and are constructed with a single pour.

Most structural engineers offer free quotes, regardless of the size of the job. For simple inspections when buying or selling a home, engineers typically charge a flat fee that may be based solely on your home’s foundation type and square footage. For larger projects, like new construction and major home renovations, an engineer will either perform an analysis of your project and site and provide you with a formal estimate, or they will do a more in-depth assessment and in-person site inspection before coming up with a per-hour or per-project cost estimate. In most cases, the estimate is free.

Although the two terms are closely related and often used interchangeably, pier and beam foundations and crawl spaces are different things. A pier and beam foundation is made up of concrete piers and wooden beams and creates a space under the home known as a crawl space. There are several types of foundations that create crawl spaces, often collectively known as “crawl space foundations,” but the crawl space itself is separate from the foundation.
