USA Foundation Repair has been setting high standards for the Corpus Christi TX area for many years. USA Foundation Repair is located in Corpus Christi TX, but you can still find us on Yelp, BBB, or the Super Pages! If you prefer a more personal experience you can call us at (361) 334-2323, or stop by our store located at 4610 Ayers St, Corpus Christi. We are also located near the USS Lexington Naval Musuem, the Texas state Aquarium, and the Corpus Christi Internalnational Airport! It is actually fairly simple to get to our office building from the Corpus Christi International Airport, follow these simple directions and we’ll have you at our doorstep in no time! Leaving the airport you want to get on TX-44 East from Pinson Drive, Glasson Drive, International Drive, and Agnes Street. Once on the the TX-44 East, you want to take TX-358 East to South Padre Island Drive. Take your exit towards Ayers Street from TX-358 East. Once there you want to drive until you hit Ayers street which is where we are located at.

"It went as good, definitely recommend."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Foundation cracks that are 1/8 inch wide or less, aren’t uneven across the gap, and don’t continue widening over time are usually just normal settling cracks and don’t suggest structural issues. Horizontal cracks and stair-step cracks on foundation walls, any cracks that continue widening, are wider than 1/8 inch, or where one side juts out beyond the other, are often indicative of structural damage.

Trusses and rafters each have advantages and disadvantages, so one isn’t necessarily better than the other. For example, trusses are more affordable and often come in prefabricated kits, so they’re easier to build than rafters. However, rafters are available in a variety of designs, so it’s easier to find one that fits your style preferences. Plus, if you want to build an attic at some point down the line, it’s far easier to do that with rafters rather than trusses.

Structural engineers are necessary for projects involving alterations to load-bearing structures, foundation work, and compliance with safety standards. This includes home expansions, retaining walls, and significant repairs that impact a property's integrity.

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 easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
