Our team will arrange a site visit to discuss project specifics and take the required measurements. A critical aspect of doing a vaulted ceiling renovation is identifying how the new point loads from the potential beam will be transferred to the foundations. We use our proprietary software to calculate the necessary beam size and determine the requirement for additional posts or foundations in the basement to safely transfer the new loads.
Deliverables:
- Stamped Engineering Letter detailing the structural requirements
- Stamped Structural Drawings c/w beam, nailing pattern, hanger selection
