"I was very impressed with their honesty and candor. They made a number of recommendations regarding my project. They had more experience with drawing 2 D floor plans and I needed 3D SolidWorks drawings for my project. I took their advice and am very happy that I did. I hired from a list of draftsmen recommended by another company representative for Utah. I would not have found the perfect fit without the help of the staff at Creations West."

"We needed prompt service for some architectural drawings, and Skyline Design delivered! He came out the next day, quickly drew up plans. We had a zoom call to fine tune any concerns, and had our plans off to the engineer within two weeks. Phone calls were returned quickly. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would highly recommend this company."

"communication was just a bit off and abrasive yet understandable. Had to assure my draft person that I wasn't putting blame on him. And the communication was as if time is money and yet again my plans were very good. Price was a bit steep but my overall satisfaction was really good."

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.

The 10 10 rule describes the formula most contractors use to determine how much to charge for a job. Allowing for 10% overhead above the total projected cost to do the work and 10% profit sets a contractor up for success, even if there are delays or other problems on the project. This formula isn’t a hard-and-fast rule, but it is a ballpark figure to begin with when estimating your expenses on a job.

Proper licensing and experience in residential and commercial structural projects.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.
