About this Gig
Are you planning to build a new backyard deck, a structural patio cover, or a retaining wall?
Before you can build, city code enforcement and HOAs almost always require specialized structural engineering plans to issue a permit.
As a professional Structural Engineer, I specialize in designing rugged, code-compliant outdoor residential structures. I calculate precise load paths to ensure your outdoor living spaces are safe and perfectly optimized for material costs.
What this gig offers:
Deck Engineering: Footing layouts, post sizes, beam spans, joist spacing, and ledger board connections.
Patio Covers & Pergolas: Structural framing plans, rafter sizing, column layouts, and wind uplift tie-down details.
Retaining Walls: Engineered structural sections for concrete block (CMU) or concrete walls, including rebar placement and drainage details.
Code Compliance: All plans are drawn to meet standard international residential codes (IRC/IBC).
Kindly message me before placing an order so we can review your backyard dimensions, layout sketches, and site conditions!

FAQ
What information do you need to design a retaining wall?
I need the total height of the wall, the type of soil behind it if known, and whether the ground above the wall is flat or sloped. Pictures of the site are also incredibly helpful!
Do you design decks using wood alternatives like Trex?
Yes. I engineer the underlying structural timber framing system (posts, beams, joists) to safely support the dead load of synthetic composite decking materials like Trex, TimberTech, or natural hardwoods.
Will these plans cover wind or snow loads for my area?
Absolutely. I utilize your specific geographic location to determine the correct design criteria for local wind speeds, seismic forces, and ground snow loads.
