What it is
A beam or header must fit the opening and the loads it supports. Engineering design considers the span, support conditions, and planned use so your contractor has a defined structural direction.
What's included
- Review of the proposed span and support conditions
- Beam or header design for the agreed structural scope
- Recommendations for how the new member is supported
When you need it
- A renovation creates or enlarges an opening
- A wall removal requires a replacement beam
- A contractor needs engineering direction for a header or support
