What clients expect and what professionals need to know
Structural engineering services for residential projects include beam sizing for wall removal and open-plan renovations, foundation assessment, deck structural analysis, and post-disaster damage evaluation. Engineers use structural analysis software (RISA, SAP2000) and IRC/IBC span tables to design beams, posts, and connections, then produce stamped drawings for permit submission. Beam sizing accounts for tributary load, species and grade lumber, point loads, and connection hardware selection.
