Our clients represent a broad-spectrum of industries and business sectors, giving us the opportunity to apply our extensive experience and passion for excellence to each specific project, regardless of the size, or special circumstances. With a well-respected track record behind us, and a solid outlook ahead, we’ve learned that our collective experience with all projects creates exceptional solutions and results for our customers, no matter what they’re building. From transportation structures to multi-level office buildings to retail and medical centers, the purpose of our business is building yours. HCI offers design, management and construction services to make your new construction project easy. Our full-service, turn-key approach assures you of a reliable, seamless process from pre-construction, through construction to final inspection. SITE-EVALUATION SERVICES: HCI's onsite, pre-bid walk-thru's are utilized to determine preliminary job evaluation and budgeting. We incorporate forward planning and identifying potential problems prior to job costing to insure accurate bids. Digital photos and extensive note taking help us to understand the entire project and needs of our clients. PRE-CONSTRUCTION SERVICES: HCI will facilitate the correct interface between owners, architects, engineers, municipalities, local building departments and subcontractors prior to job start up, insures a full understanding of job scope, seamless start up transition and complete schedule adherence. Meeting with all related parties prior to construction start allows everyone to understand each other’s needs, desires and requirements as they relate to the project. Having the opportunity to dialog with all participants takes the “guess-work” out of protocols, scheduling, and the course of communication stream. This process also allows any final or potential problems to be addressed and remedied prior to the construction start date. CONSTRUCTION: A successful construction project always starts with successful planning. HCI prides itself on taking the time to plan and prepare for a project long before the first workers show up on site. Understanding that the complete construction process requires planning, scheduling, tracking, budgeting and proper managing allows our team of highly trained professionals, project managers and site superintendents to operate with optimum performance, and quality control on each and every project we undertake, from conception to completion.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

Clean regularly, treat wood for weather resistance, and inspect for damage to ensure longevity.

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.

The standard thickness for an LVL beam is between 1.75 inches and 7 inches. However, you can order LVL beams in non-standard sizes as well. When you work with a contractor, they can source beams that are the appropriate size for your project for you after assessing your blueprints.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.
