Customers say: True professional

"Mr Shepard was wonderful to work with. We were very worried when our home inspector advised us to get a structural engineer. I tried to reach several engineers, but because it was a Saturday I was having a hard time getting a response. Mr Shepard was the only one that called me back that day. He was able to come address our structural issue right away so that we could move forward quickly with the sale of our home. We were very happy with Mr. shepards quality of work. I would highly recommend him to everyone!"

"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."

"I couldn’t be more pleased with the quartz and tile installation done by Chip Streeter and his team at Mount Pleasant Residential Repair. Chip is a true professional — his attention to detail, clear communication, and commitment to quality were evident throughout the entire project. The quartz countertops were cut and installed perfectly, and the tile work is immaculate. Every line is clean and precise, and the overall finish exceeded my expectations. Chip and his crew were punctual, respectful of my home, and left the work area spotless. If you’re looking for top-quality craftsmanship combined with outstanding customer service, I highly recommend Chip Streeter and Mount Pleasant Residential Repair. I’ll absolutely be calling them again for future projects at my Folly Beach house! Master bath and outdoor shower and tub is next on my list!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The average cost to hire a structural engineer is about $550, with prices generally ranging from $200 to $1,500. Structural engineers may charge a flat rate, by the project, by square footage, or an hourly rate, which is typically between $100 and $250. Many jobs, such as inspections and structural calculations, are billed at a flat rate, which often falls between $300 and $800. The final cost depends on several factors, including the project's type, scope, size, complexity, ease of access for inspection, and your geographic location.

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.

Their expertise in identifying potential problems early and implementing durable solutions safeguards your home’s integrity.

Through detailed analysis of load paths, materials, and existing damages.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.
