"The HOA wanted us to have someone assess a wall that we want to remove. Hazim was very helpful when asking and assessing our project and was incredibly prompt with everything from phone calls to the letter Hazim was able to come out for the short visit within a couple days of speaking with him over the phone despite his busy schedule. When meeting in person he was very personable. Hazim was thorough and clear when explaining things so I never felt lost. Our project was pretty small when compared to others but I highly recommend Wilson&HAJ"

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)

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.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

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.
