"Kamal was extremely helpful in surveying the structural integrity of our dock. He went through immense detail to outline everything that needed to be repaired and was very efficient in getting it back to me for our broker in the sale of our home. I highly recommend Alaska engine engineering!"

"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."

"Mario did an excellent job making a pier and beam foundation for my future home. He replied quick (during the holidays as well), and was very communicative. He worked around my budget without any issues. After many attempts of looking for someone to do this for my new home, Mario was the right man for the job. Would definitely call him again for any future projects."

"Travis brought our dream home to life! After struggling with another drafter who couldn’t quite capture our vision, Travis exceeded all expectations. Every space in the house is thoughtfully and practically designed, and his talent and experience are truly unmatched. He was attentive, easy to work with, and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process. Our home is still under construction, and we constantly hear how perfect the layout is — a true testament to his skill and dedication. We couldn’t be more grateful!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)

Structural engineers draw structural plans, which include detailed drawings of the structural components of a home only. Complete house plans will require additional work from an architect or draftsperson, whose drawings will take the structural drawings into account. They’ll also include more details about the finishing materials and layout of a home, including everything from roofing and flooring materials to the position of furniture, light fixtures, switches, and plumbing fixtures.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

It's safe to assume that all exterior walls are load-bearing, or at least have load-bearing characteristics. Some older homes feature porches or bump-outs that don't rest on the home's foundation. However, they still must carry the weight of the roof section they support. Walls containing floor-to-ceiling glass or other non-structural elements must use post and beam configurations to meet load-bearing criteria.

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