Rectangular Steel Building Foundation Design
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I am seeking an experienced civil or structural engineer to design a foundation for a rectangular steel building. The purpose of the foundation is multiple-fold.
1. Weight Support: It should be able to effectively support the weight of the steel building.
2. Soil Stabilization: The design will need to account for stabilization against soil movement, specifically typical soil conditions for middle Illinois.
3. Wind Resistance: The foundation should also provide resistance against wind loads.
Key Skills and Experience:
• Civil or structural engineering, preferably with experience in steel building foundations
• Knowledge of Illinois soil conditions and dealing with potential soil movement
• Expertise in designs resistant to wind loads is crucial.
