Specified: 6x6 pressure-treated post. Installed: 6x8. Grout: never happened.

So now the post isn’t bearing right, and the fix is digging the soil out to expose the concrete and grouting it for a real bearing surface.

How would you resolve this problem? 👇

Flying steel over a house and down a hillside 🏗️
The crane set up on the street, the beams went up and over the roof, then down the slope onto new concrete footings. The Warner Geovani Tobar crew guided every piece in by hand and connected it up top, and the frame came together one beam at a time.

One knot broke this roof. 🪵⚠️
A 2x4 ceiling tie in this garage snapped. The crack likely started at a knot in the wood, and the roof sagged because of it.
The fix:
✅ Jacked the roof back up 3–4 inches
✅ Lapped a new 2x12 in alongside
✅ Proper lag screw connection up top to the rafter to carry the tension

The Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing — $114 million to get mountain lions, bobcats, and deer safely across 10 lanes of the 101. About $540K per foot, against roughly $170K per foot for the Long Beach bridge. Just over three times as much per foot. Why? Builders and engineers — what drove the price? 👇

POV: you’re on a boat under the Long Beach International Gateway Bridge 🌉

515-ft towers. 1,000-ft main span. 205 ft of clearance — the tallest cable-stayed deck in America.

It replaced the Gerald Desmond Bridge in 2020, and it’s engineered to survive the earthquake the old one couldn’t. Its joints can move 6 feet in any direction.

$1.5B of structural engineering, floating over the Port of Long Beach.

These caisson cages are likely going in the ocean — and they’re not epoxied. They’ve been sitting by the water and they’re barely rusted. Regular black bar would be orange by now.

Not epoxied, not rusted — what coating is this? 👇

Tropical storm swells are pounding this Malibu seawall — and we’re doing the engineering to rebuild the fire-damaged property behind it. The job now: fix the seawall before the ocean takes the existing foundation we’re trying to preserve.

This is what coastal engineering looks like in real time. 🌊

Hip roof framing with 4 hips. Trying to frame four big LVL hips into one point would be a mess of compound cuts and hardware. A steel hub at the peak gives every hip a clean place to land and bolt off. 🏗️

3 existing houses on one lot in Oxnard. When we’re done there will be 7 homes. On a multifamily lot you can add more ADUs, so this one gets a garage conversion, a new ADU and a duplex. 🏠🏠🏠
