"In renovating our beach cottage in Warwick, RI we found the roof needed structural work. Building inspector required a structural engineered plan. Adam was easy to communicate with. He was timely with his plan and follow up inspection. He was also available by text and phone for questions during the project. He was great to work with!"

"I am an architectural designer that works mostly with residential clients on renovations and additions. I am ALWAYS being asked for referrals for General Contractors and having a few reliable, trustworthy & qualified companies that I can feel good about recommending is crucial. While craftsmanship is usually first and foremost in hiring a builder, there are always complications on projects, and sometimes it’s how a GC handles these complications that is the true testament to their value as a team member. McKinley & Barron check all these boxes for me and I always feel safe recommending them! They are also great guys that clients enjoy working with!"

"Vista started in what seemed like a very organized matter, but communication started failing throughout the project. Our sales person was let go early on and our initial bid was far too unclear, so we had to rework expectations and ESPECIALLY unrealistic time frames with our construction manager. He also left the project before the end of the work. Overall the work quality was OK, but communications and timeliness were a real issue throughout. I found the guys that were onsite to be friendly and accommodating, but the process - which seemed so organized - got very chaotic at the end and we were just glad for it to be over. There were weeks when we'd hope to get answers on dates and it was hard to get them, and multiple times we were told the day of an expected service visit, that they'd be delayed a week. These guys are certainly NOT crooks and can do decent work, but seems like they need to revisit their structure and how much they take on. I suspect these guys are best at the sun-rooms they promote more than other home work."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Provides expert analysis, ensuring safety and compliance with building codes.

The depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.

The 10 10 rule describes the formula most contractors use to determine how much to charge for a job. Allowing for 10% overhead above the total projected cost to do the work and 10% profit sets a contractor up for success, even if there are delays or other problems on the project. This formula isn’t a hard-and-fast rule, but it is a ballpark figure to begin with when estimating your expenses on a job.

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.
