Clear beam and support answers for home remodeling

I help homeowners, remodelers, and contractors make confident framing decisions for wall removals and new openings. My focus is beam and header sizing, open-concept kitchen loads, and post and footing...
About this Gig

A new support beam is only as reliable as the structure below it. Get post loads, bearing demand and footing reactions traced before framing work or material ordering begins.


I provide focused load-transfer calculations from a beam through posts and bearing points to the supporting structure below.


My service can include:

  • Beam end reactions
  • Post or column compression loads
  • Bearing demand and required area
  • Load accumulation between levels
  • Stacked-support review
  • Existing footing pressure check
  • Soil bearing comparison
  • Support upgrade triggers
  • Calculation summary with assumptions


This service is suitable for wall-removal beams, widened openings, remodels and other projects that create new concentrated loads.


Send the beam span and reactions if known, support locations, post height and material, levels below, foundation layout, footing size, available soil bearing value, project city/state and clear photos or sketches.
