Why get a Structural Inspection?

JEFFERY L. LINEBERGER, PE

“…Peace of mind is by far the most frequent reason for getting a structural inspection…”

Buyers, sellers, or investors typically use these inspections to determine any future repair costs resulting from failed structural systems. A structural inspection done by a licensed engineer may reveal hidden performance issues before they become structural integrity problems.

 

Our engineering inspections strictly conform to the following guidelines:

Guidelines for the Evaluation and Repair of Residential Foundations – Version 2
An occupant, owner and client interview covering a history of the property and performance of the structure)
A request and subsequent review of all relevant documents available from the client (e. g. foundation documents, construction drawings, geotechnical reports, structural diagnostic reports, previous engineering opinions & testing).

Identifying factors influencing the performance of the foundation and a written report, containing at least the following: a) scope of services, observations, site characteristics, and data deemed pertinent by the engineer; b) a discussion of major factors influencing foundation performance and rationale in reaching conclusions concerning the subject residence; c) conclusions and any recommendations for further investigation and remedial or preventative measures.
