I will do structural drawings and beam calculations on wall removal


About this gig
I specialize in creating accurate, professional structural layout reviews and beam calculations specifically for load-bearing wall removals. Whether you are a homeowner, general contractor, or real estate investor, I provide the exact technical review you need to build safely and clear city roadblocks.
WHAT THIS GIG COVERS (TECHNICAL DELIVERABLES):
Structural Layout Plan Review: Expert analysis of your CAD layouts or framing sketches to verify spans, load-bearing paths, and positions for new support members.
Multi-Ply LVL & Steel I-Beam Sizing: Code-compliant evaluation determining exactly what depth and thickness beam your span requires to prevent structural deflection (sag).
Continuous Load Path Verification: Analytical tracking to ensure gravity and lateral weight transfer safely from the roof or upper floor down to the foundation.
King Stud & Jack Stud Framing Analysis: Precise calculation of the exact multi-stud configuration required at the posts to safely support your header beam point loads.
Connection & Fastening Specifications: Thorough review of joist hangers, structural screws (SDS/SDWS), and column cap hardware (e.g., Simpson Strong-Tie specs).

FAQ
What specific information do I need to provide to get started?
Please provide a basic floor plan sketch with dimensions, clear photos of the wall you want to remove, and an explanation of what is directly above the wall (e.g., an attic, a second floor, or roof framing). Knowing your local lumber yard preferences (LVL vs. Steel) is also highly helpful!
Can you size both Engineered Lumber (LVL) and Structural Steel I-Beams?
Yes. I perform calculations for multi-ply Engineered Wood headers (LVL, Glulam, PSL) as well as Structural Steel I-beams, depending on your clearance requirements, span length, and budget.
Will your structural review help me pass city plan check inspections?
Absolutely. All calculations and layout reviews follow international building standards (IRC/IBC). If your city building department sends back any plan check comments or structural corrections, I provide unlimited revisions in the premium tier to help you clear them fast.
What if the wall has already been removed by my contractor?
Don't panic! Select my Standard or Premium package. Send me clear photos of the exposed framing, the header installed, and the post connections. I will run a retrospective calculation to verify if it is safe or tell you exactly how to reinforce it to avoid structural sag.
