About this Gig
Turning an attic into living space? Get joist capacity, support beams, stair-opening effects and reactions checked before adding floors, finishes or concentrated loads.
I provide focused attic floor and load-path calculations using client-supplied measurements, framing information and photos.
My service can include:
- Existing joist size, spacing and span review
- Proposed dead and live load calculations
- Bending, shear and deflection checks
- Joist capacity and upgrade triggers
- Support-beam sizing
- Stair-opening header and trimmer demands
- Partition or concentrated-load review
- Beam reactions and bearing demands
- Calculation summary with assumptions
This service is suitable for attic bedrooms, offices, playrooms and conversions from storage to regular living use.
Send the attic layout, proposed use, joist size, spacing, span, species and grade if known, beam and bearing locations, stair opening, floor buildup, project city/state and clear photos with a tape measure for scale.

FAQ
Can you work from photographs if no attic plan exists?
Yes, for a limited study when the layout, measurements, joist direction, member sizes, spacing, spans and bearing locations are clearly documented. Unclear conditions may require additional information
What if the joist species or grade is unknown?
A conservative assumption may be used when appropriate and agreed before starting. The assumption will be clearly stated, and local material verification may still be needed
Does this service check attic headroom, stairs or emergency escape requirements?
It checks only the listed framing loads, joists, beams, stair-opening members and supports. Architectural layout, headroom, stair geometry and emergency escape planning are excluded
