I’m adding a modest storage attachment to the rear of my commercial shop and need a licensed U.S. structural engineer to make sure everything is code-compliant before I submit for permits. The footprint is small, but the city still wants signed and sealed calculations plus drawings that show the new walls, roof ties and how the loads transfer to the existing structure.
Here’s what I’m looking for you to deliver:
• Stamped structural drawings (PDF and DWG) showing the connection details between the existing building and the new storage area.
• Load calculations that satisfy IBC and local amendments.
• A brief design summary I can share with the contractor and the building department.
I’ll provide site photos, the original as-built plans and measurements of the proposed attachment so you can get started right away. My preference is to keep the design straightforward and economical—steel ledger or light-gauge framing is fine so long as it passes inspection.
Timing is important; I’d like to file within two weeks, so please include a realistic turnaround in your proposal along with your license jurisdiction. Let me know if you need any additional information from my end.
