I'm seeking an experienced engineer to with design and calculate specifications for a steel window header in a residential building. I have a 20 Foot Wall in the rear of my house. Expanding a 12 Foot Sliding door to a 18 Foot Sliding door. I have a floor above with 8 foot ceiling, and a storage attic with a gable roof with asphalt shingles. The main floor where the 18 foot patio door is being installed has 7foot 6 Inch ceiling height and about 9 inches between the top of the new sliding door and the joists which are open and exposed as part of the design. The house was built in 1929 and we believe it has a balloon framing structure. The wall is 2x6 Construction and the house is elevated with concrete piers. In the rear directly under this wall are three piers, two on each the far left and Right and one in the center under the door. The wind on the outside of that wall can be somewhat fierce. This needs to be engineered in a way that will not require a crane or any lifting equipment, and a three-man crew can lift. I would prefer LVL wood with Steal plate if possible if possible. if not possible then multiple steal beams that can be installed by three men or a Beam/config that can be constructed in pieces. Any solution will need to be nailed or bolted and not welded. Key requirements include: - Detailed design and structural calculations - Compliance with local building codes and regulations - Experience with residential steel structures Ideal skills and experience: - Structural engineering degree - Proficiency in design software (e.g., AutoCAD, Revit) - Strong knowledge of steel construction and residential projects

Hi I can design and engineer a buildable header solution for your 18-foot sliding door that respects the tight vertical clearance, balloon framing conditions, and on-site handling limits. I will evaluate gravity, wind, and load path continuity from the attic roof through the floor system down to the existing concrete piers, accounting for the 1929 construction and exposed joist condition. Where feasible, I’ll prioritize a multi-ply LVL with steel flitch plates or a segmented steel/LVL hybrid that can be assembled in place by a three-person crew without cranes or welding. You’ll receive clear structural calculations, connection details (bolted/nailed only), and permit-ready drawings compliant with local code requirements. I have extensive experience with residential retrofits, large openings, and constrained installations where constructability is just as critical as strength. Thanks

Hello, Hope you are doing well. I can provide a complete engineered design and structural calculations for the new 18-foot sliding door header in your rear wall, accounting for the existing balloon framing, upper floor loads, attic with gable roof, wind exposure, and pier-supported foundation conditions. The design will be developed to comply with applicable residential building codes and will prioritize constructability, using LVL with steel plate reinforcement where feasible, or a multi-piece steel beam configuration that can be safely installed by a three-person crew without cranes or welding. I will size and detail the header, bearing conditions, fasteners (bolts/nails), load paths to the existing piers, and any required jamb or post reinforcement, with clear installation notes and drawings. Deliverables will include permit-ready drawings, detailed structural calculations, and an engineered solution tailored to your site constraints and construction preferences. Thank you. Maksim
