"I had an urgent request to get a permit across the line and Pedro was on his A-game and helped me within hours. Very professional, well documented, etc. Other structural engineers I hired only gave me headaches. I'd use Pedro again any day. Thank you very much, and glad to be in business with you!"

"I needed a structural engineer for removing a wall. The company was able to give me a written plan I could submit to city inspectors in a very timely manner. What I thought would be a huge puse in our remodel ended up going on without delay."

Customers say: Super punctual

"We used Dave to create a complete set of plans for a guest house we intend to build on our property. The house is to be fully wheelchair accessible. We were able to get an appointment quickly after our initial contact. He listened to our ideas and asked all the right questions to help bring our vision to life. He respected our ideas and gave thoughtful consideration to the unique features we are working to incorporate into the space. He gave us a fair quote, delivered the complete set of plans in a reasonable period of time, made adjustments based on our preferences and offered suggestions to make the home even more functional. He even made additional adjustments to the plan after the city required certain modifications and did not charge any additional fees. He was very easy to work with. We highly recommend Dave as an architect."

"Mofid came and did a full structural analysis of the foundation of our house. We are selling it and issues had come up about the foundation. He completed a full inspection with an executive summary. It addressed all of the issues for us and the buyers and saved us a lot of money. He was timely, professional and completed a great job."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

A 4-inch-thick concrete slab can support around 4,000 pounds per square foot if a contractor reinforces the slab with rebar, while that same slab without reinforcements will support closer to 1,000 pounds. For the purposes of a patio, 4 inches in thickness without reinforcement should suffice unless you’re installing heavy kitchen equipment or a hot tub on it. In those cases, reinforcing your slab and sticking with 4 inches of thickness should provide plenty of strength.

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.

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.

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