Structural Engineer Needed for House Review
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I'm currently constructing a 2-storey concrete frame house with a concrete flat roof. A basic layout is prepared, but I need a qualified structural engineer to review the layout and perform necessary calculations to ensure the design is secure and sound. Minimal footing and column in a logical, legit way is appreciated.
Key elements from current basic layout:
- Ground floor 3800mm, First floor 3200mm. Assume that the soil bearing capacity is at 100KN. (Probably higher)
- Footing: All sit beneath at each column, size is 1000mmx1000mmx400mm. Using 12mm steel bars (check attached photo)
- Column: Nos 15 - 300mmx300mm reinforced with 6 x 16mm steel bars, R6 links 100mm.
- Beam: 200mmx400mm depth, tie with each footing/column, also links where there is wall above.
- Slab is assumed at 150mm at ground floor, first floor, and roof. Recommendation is needed based on your calculations.
- Walls are made of bricks.
Key Areas of Review:
- Foundation stability
- Footing
- Columns
- Beams
- Slab
Detailed Calculations Required For:
- Footing
- Beams
- Columns
- Slab thickness
- Steel bar requirements
Ideal candidates should have extensive experience in structural engineering, particularly with concrete frame houses. They should also be able to provide recommendations for design improvements if necessary. Please be prepared to provide evidence of your previous relevant work.
