"We hired Dan to design our "dream home" from scratch. We had a few vague ideas we thought were best and final and Dan very graciously guided us through the entire Project: educating, informing and giving us options. We completed almost 99% of the work with him over email and yes, he was always there no later than next day to answer questions, showing new schematics and attaching technical documents to better explain his comments (this was very convenient and worked best for our busy schedule). I feel he was thorough and detailed and had the believe he was very involved all the time. The county we are in is tough and requirements are many. He went back to the drawing table and adjusted plans as many times as required by the Building Department even calling them a few times to discuss their concerns. We plan on start building this next Spring and this in part thanks to Dan that was efficient, turned our plans around quickly and stayed 100% on budget."

"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."

We are a full service firm that provides a range of architecture services for commercial, residential, and institutional applications. We work in all environments: new construction, renovation, sensitive historic areas.\n\nOur design solutions are highly intuitive- all of the parts and pieces go where they are “supposed” to be. Navigating through the spaces should be an effortless experience. The finished work is always a reflection of the patron, the builder, and the architect, and the final result is one that evokes a sense of appropriateness, durability, and timeless beauty. \n\nSustainability is inherent in our process. It is a mindset that involves more than simply providing green materials, or saving energy. It is about being a good steward of our environment. This sustainable ethos relies on working with the sun, wind, water, and gravity… and not against it. \n\nWe take pride in listening to your vision, and tailoring our services to respond to your specific needs!

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Building codes for spiral staircases will vary by your location. Most local codes will specify minimum tread width, riser height, handrail requirements, and headroom. These standards help ensure safety and accessibility for all users. Always check local codes before you begin the installation to ensure compliance and avoid costly modifications or fines.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

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.

A structural engineer evaluates any structural components, like floors, foundations, walls, and roofs, to ensure they can support the structure. They also consider the soil quality in your area, potentially extreme weather conditions, and proximity to bodies of water and groundwater to ensure your building can withstand any stresses placed on it by the surrounding environment. Structural engineers work on both new and existing buildings.
