Structural engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with the design, analysis, and construction of structures that support or resist loads. For your home, it ensures that your foundation, walls, beams, and other structural components are safe, stable, and capable of withstanding natural forces like wind, earthquakes, and snow loads.
If your renovation involves significant changes, such as removing or altering load-bearing walls, adding a new floor, or altering the foundation, it's highly recommended to consult with a structural engineer. They can assess the structural integrity and ensure that your renovations comply with building codes.
Signs of structural issues may include cracks in walls or ceilings, uneven floors, doors and windows that don't close properly, or foundation settlement. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's a good idea to have a structural engineer assess your home to identify any potential problems.
A structural engineer focuses on the safety and stability of your home’s structure, while a general contractor manages the overall construction or renovation project, coordinating labor, materials, and other tradespeople. A structural engineer may work with a general contractor to ensure that the design and execution are safe and compliant with building codes.
