Renovations include updating an office or home for a new business, family, or individual. This may include new flooring, lighting, and finishes. A Structural Engineer can review the existing structure for its ability to support new loading and, if needed or requested, provide options for strengthening the structure. A Structural Engineer can also provide a review of the building code and local ordinances for recommended voluntary or mandatory building retrofits to strengthen the existing building structure to conform with local ordinances and building code updates for earthquake safety.
