Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply.U.S. located freelancers only
Project Overview: I have plans and documentation, my township is asking to have those plans reviewed and stamped by an New Jersey Professional Engineer (PE). I am constructing a detached, 20x23 one-story accessory building (workshop/gym) on my property in Harrison Township, NJ (ZIP 08062). I need a licensed New Jersey Professional Engineer (PE) to review my structural layout, perform/verify the required roof system load calculations, and provide certified engineering plans for my building permit application. Specific Scope of Work: Structural Review & Calculations: Perform a complete structural deflection and load check on the roof system to ensure strict compliance with the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (NJ UCC). Calculations must account for local ground snow loads and a dead load configuration consisting of asphalt shingles, 7/16" OSB, fiberglass insulation, and a drywall ceiling. Framing Specifications: The current design features an open room with no interior posts, utilizing a 10/12 roof pitch, 2x6 SPF #2 rafters, and 2x10 ceiling joists spaced 16 inches on center over a 19-foot interior wall-to-wall clear span. The engineer will verify if this configuration meets code or specify required modifications (e.g., purlin bracing or a manufactured truss submittal package). Deliverables Required: A comprehensive, stamped structural calculation report. Two (2) physical copies of the final engineered plans bearing a valid, active New Jersey PE raised seal or a cryptographically secure, verifiable digital seal that complies fully with NJ Division of Consumer Affairs regulations for electronic submittals. Candidate Requirements (Non-Negotiable): Must hold an active New Jersey Professional Engineer (PE) License in good standing. Must be willing to provide your full legal name and PE license number upfront so I can verify your status on the official NJ License Verification database prior to contract award. If operating as a business entity, your firm must possess an active New Jersey Certificate of Authorization (COA). Absolute adherence to communication and payment milestones exclusively through this platform.
