Today's new residential home designs have come a long way from the traditional home designs a generation ago.
New homes today have taller ceiling heights, more window openings in walls, and more complicated floor and roof plan layouts that can quickly complicate what was previously considered "conventional design".
Shell + Meyer Associates can provide full structural design services for new custom homes (including developing structural plans and specifications) or provide design verification of individual structural components.

In recent years residential deck failures have gained attention in the news.
By one estimate, of the 40 million existing decks in the United States only 50% meet the minimum standards specified in the building code.
Fortunately, research has led to many new code requirments that will hopefully help to ensure public safety with respect to these very common structures found in residential construction.
If you plan on building a new deck Shell + Meyer can provide complete design documents and engineering for the new deck to meet the new code requirements.
