I will perform a floor load capacity calculation and floor joist verification
Structural Engineer
About this Gig
Are you planning to install a heavy load like a hot tub, aquarium, or home gym? Or perhaps you are altering an upper floor and need building control approval? I am a professional structural engineer offering precise floor load capacity calculations and comprehensive floor joist verification to ensure your floor structure is safe, stable, and code-compliant.
I analyze both permanent dead loads (flooring, ceiling materials, structural framing) and live loads (occupants, heavy equipment, storage) to check for bending stress, shear capacity, and deflection limits. You will receive a clear, builder-ready report complete with timber/steel sizing checks and padstone or support recommendations if reinforcement is required.
What I Offer:
- Accurate floor load capacity calculation for point loads or uniform loads
- Complete floor joist verification for existing or proposed timber/steel joists
- Deflection checks and bending moment analysis to prevent sagging or vibration
- Reinforcing solutions (sistering joists, flitch beams, or additional supports)
- Engineering calculation report formatted for building control submission
