Structural steel frame and composite deck — Wide-flange columns and beams with gusseted connections carrying a composite metal deck — **Structural steel frame and composite deck** Wide-flange columns and beams with gusseted connections carrying a composite metal deck. Residential work that behaves like commercial construction. New Construction →

Steel-framed deck over a slope — An elevated deck framed in steel and carried on columns down the hillside — the condition where prescriptive deck details stop being usable — **Steel-framed deck over a slope** An elevated deck framed in steel and carried on columns down the hillside — the condition where prescriptive deck details stop being usable. Decks & Patios →

Beam in, bearing walls out — Mid-construction: the new steel beam is set and shored while the walls that were carrying the roof come out beneath it — **Beam in, bearing walls out** Mid-construction: the new steel beam is set and shored while the walls that were carrying the roof come out beneath it. Wall Removal →

Hillside addition and site structures — Elevated structure, retaining, and a cast concrete spa on a steep lot — several structural systems that all have to land on the same hillside — **Hillside addition and site structures** Elevated structure, retaining, and a cast concrete spa on a steep lot — several structural systems that all have to land on the same hillside. New Construction →

Covered structure on masonry piers — Steel framing bearing on stone-clad piers over an open outdoor area, with the load path carried down through the piers to footings — **Covered structure on masonry piers** Steel framing bearing on stone-clad piers over an open outdoor area, with the load path carried down through the piers to footings. Decks & Patios →

Long-span opening at a covered patio — A folding glass wall spanning the full width of the opening — the header over it is doing considerably more work than the finish suggests — **Long-span opening at a covered patio** A folding glass wall spanning the full width of the opening — the header over it is doing considerably more work than the finish suggests. Remodels →

Load-bearing wall removal in progress — Framing exposed where an interior bearing wall is being taken out — **Load-bearing wall removal in progress** Framing exposed where an interior bearing wall is being taken out. Tracing what the wall actually carried is most of the engineering. Wall Removal →

Retaining wall, waterproofing and drainage — Membrane and free-draining backfill going in behind a concrete retaining wall — **Retaining wall, waterproofing and drainage** Membrane and free-draining backfill going in behind a concrete retaining wall. Drainage is what usually decides whether a wall lasts. Retaining Walls →

Stepped foundation on a hillside lot — Concrete walls stepping down a slope with dowels in place for the next pour — routine on the benches, and unforgiving if the steps are wrong — **Stepped foundation on a hillside lot** Concrete walls stepping down a slope with dowels in place for the next pour — routine on the benches, and unforgiving if the steps are wrong. Foundation Repair →

Pier and anchor bolts under a timber post — A cast concrete pier with anchor bolts set for the post above — **Pier and anchor bolts under a timber post** A cast concrete pier with anchor bolts set for the post above. The connection is the part that gets checked hardest. Decks & Patios →

Site wall with timber roof framing — A concrete site wall carrying timber roof framing — combining retaining and gravity structure in one element — **Site wall with timber roof framing** A concrete site wall carrying timber roof framing — combining retaining and gravity structure in one element. Retaining Walls →

Spalled concrete and corroded reinforcement — Section loss at a concrete beam end with the reinforcement exposed and corroding — documented as part of a structural condition assessment — **Spalled concrete and corroded reinforcement** Section loss at a concrete beam end with the reinforcement exposed and corroding — documented as part of a structural condition assessment. Inspections & Letters →

Measuring crack width on site — Crack width, pattern, and whether it is still moving are the questions that decide the repair — **Measuring crack width on site** Crack width, pattern, and whether it is still moving are the questions that decide the repair. This is what a site visit actually looks like. Inspections & Letters →

Steel framing at dusk — Structural steel and deck framing on a hillside addition — **Steel framing at dusk** Structural steel and deck framing on a hillside addition. New Construction →

Elevated deck and addition — Steel structure carried over grade on a sloped lot — **Elevated deck and addition** Steel structure carried over grade on a sloped lot. Decks & Patios →

Cantilevered hillside addition — Cantilevered steel structure supporting an addition over a slope — **Cantilevered hillside addition** Cantilevered steel structure supporting an addition over a slope. Decks & Patios →
