Engineering is the backbone of any structure, which provides strength & life to it. A home consists of many complex components including structural framing and foundation. These must assimilate cohesively and comply with the 2006 International Residential Code (IRC) for structural integrity and safety.
Structural Framing Design...First we start by considering the needs of the home owner or builder to arrive at the most efficient structural system such as conventional wood frame, Truss systems, or conventional wood frame with steel. We provide structural engineering designs for the entire building which include roof , floors, columns, posts, beams and shear walls. The building as a whole is not only designed for gravity load but for wind load as well.
Ingeniously Designed offers complete framing solutions backed by detailed structural drwaings, which are easy to understand and construct.
Foundation Design... Many home owners are faced annually with sinking house foundations, cracked and damaged walls or uneven floors. This ultimately results in structural damage and loss of your investment.
Ingeniously Designed strives to provide our clients with a quality foundation design that has an adequate load capacity for structural stability. In coordination with a Geotechnical Soils Report (highly recommended), we design foundations for a multitude of soil types and conditions. These include standard slab-on-grade , slab-on-grade with drilled piers, pier and beam, and post-tension slabs.
