Developing practical solutions based on this demand…

Pain Points (Public)

Homeowners and builders undertaking custom residential builds or structural renovations (such as removing load-bearing walls or modifying roof truss profiles) lack licensed engineering capabilities to perform critical gravity, wind, and seismic load path calculations needed to secure municipal building permits.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Deliver end-to-end residential structural engineering and drafting packages, utilizing structural analysis tools like Enercalc or RISA-3D to size beams and headers, specify truss framing, verify lateral resistance against ASCE 7 wind loads, and produce permit-ready calculation reports and stamped drawings.
