Concrete Column-Beam Layout Review
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I already have a residential floor plan drafted and need a qualified structural engineer to step in now. Your task is to analyse the drawing, respect my preference for an open-floor arrangement, and determine the correct positions and sizes of all concrete columns and beams.
Please review the architectural file, run the necessary load calculations, and return a mark-up (PDF or DWG) showing column/grid locations, beam spans, and member sizes. A concise calculation sheet that justifies the dimensions you choose is also required so my local permitting office can sign off without delay.
Key points you should keep in mind: the structure is strictly concrete, no load-bearing walls are planned because I want the main living area to remain unobstructed, and any changes you suggest must stay within typical residential construction practice and local code limits.
Deliverables:
• Updated plan with column and beam layout.
• Member schedule with concrete grades and reinforcement notes.
• Brief structural calculation summary suitable for submission to the city.
If you can turn this around quickly while keeping the drawings tidy and calculations clear, let’s get started.
