Another successful project in the books!๐Ÿ“š

Over the spring we provided structural engineering consulting on a garage addition project in eastern Iowa. Our client wanted to add on to his existing garage, and he wanted a large opening in a load bearing wall in case he needed to move vehicles in between the existing and add on structure. ๐Ÿ›ป

We provided guidance in sizing the headers and footings required to support the new loads created by the new opening in the load bearing wall. So excited for our clients and their new space!
