I am a Structural Engineer with around 5 years of experience providing structural design, analysis, calculations, and construction drawings for residential and small commercial projects in the USA and UK. I specialise in practical and cost-effective structural engineering solutions for building alterations, extensions, additions, and remedial works. I regularly work with homeowners, architects, builders, and engineering firms to prepare clear structural drawings and calculation packages suitable for permit submission, Building Control review, and construction. My main areas of expertise include: • Horizontal additions and rear/side building extensions • Vertical additions and additional storey support design • Attic conversions and loft structural upgrades • Deck framing, posts, beams, footings, and lateral stability • Retaining wall design and assessment • Foundation design, underpinning, and foundation replacement • Steel beam, timber beam, and reinforced concrete design • Seismic design and lateral load-resisting systems • Shear wall design and braced wall layouts • Structural assessment of existing buildings • Wall removal, opening formation, and load path review I have experience working with relevant US and UK design standards, including IRC, IBC, ASCE, ACI, NDS, BS, Eurocodes, and UK Building Regulations, depending on the project location and scope. I can assist with: • Structural calculations and design reports • Permit/construction structural drawings • Foundation and framing plans • Beam, column, post, and footing design • Retaining wall and deck structural packages • Structural markups and review of architectural drawings • Remote support for engineering firms and architects Software I use includes AutoCAD, Revit, Robot Structural Analysis, ETABS, SAFE, Tekla Structural Designer, Tekla Tedds, STAAD, SAP2000, and IDEA StatiCa. My focus is to provide safe, buildable, and economical structural solutions with clear documentation that clients, contractors, and approval authorities can easily understand. I am available for both fixed-price projects and long-term remote structural engineering support.
