FAQ
Can you prepare structural calculations for a building permit?
I can prepare calculations and supporting documentation for an agreed project scope, subject to the applicable design criteria and my professional authorization. Please share your location and permit requirements first, as the authority may require local engineering review or certification.
What information do you need for foundation design?
I typically need architectural drawings, building dimensions, structural loads, project location, applicable design code, and available geotechnical or soil investigation data. Missing information may require further clarification or investigation.
What types of foundations can you work on?
Depending on the project and available information, the scope may include pad footings, strip foundations, and other suitable foundation systems. The appropriate solution depends on structural loads, ground conditions, and the relevant design requirements.
Will the calculations guarantee permit approval?
No. Permit decisions are made by the relevant building authority. The service can support your submission, but approval may depend on local requirements, independent review, additional documentation, and authorized professional sign-off.
Can you work with my existing architectural drawings?
Yes, if the drawings contain sufficient information for the agreed scope. I can review the supplied plans and identify missing details or coordination issues before confirming the deliverables and timeline.
