"I was in serious need of a top structural engineer to evaluate exterior remodeling on my home. Previously I hired someone representing themselves as a contractor to complete some comprehensive work on my home. The individual quit before the work was complete, leaving me figure out the rest. After finding out this person wasn't actually licensed in the first place, I desperately needed a structural engineer to assist me. The amount of work to review was substantial, and I had a very difficult time finding a structural engineer. After submitting a request on Angi, Neal from R4 Engineering reached out to me. From beginning to end, he was kind, professional, and thorough. He scheduled a meeting with me in a very reasonable timeframe. After coming to my home, discussing the work in depth, and taking lots of photos, a report was compiled. I needed a report that served multiple purposes. I needed data to address the fraudulent contractors work, a clear road map to provide a licensed contractor for correction of the remodeling, and plans to provide the county for permitting purposes. When I received the report from Neal, I was truly blown away at detail. Only someone who takes pride in their work could assemble a report like this. The amount of hours and effort that must have gone into this is rather remarkable. Neal and R4 will definitely be my go to for structural engineering from now on."

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

"Mark was great! He was very thorough and helped us identify what most critically needed to be addressed in our home. Having him offer a neutral 3rd party opinion helped ease our minds regarding the various projects that need to be completed. Highly recommend."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

Many horizontal cracks in home foundations result from water and soil pressure from outside of the building or from a footing that is shifting. Under those circumstances, horizontal cracks are a structural problem that requires repair before they become worse and more difficult to fix. However, in very specific cases, thin horizontal cracks may simply be a cosmetic blemish due to concrete shrinkage.

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.

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.
