Posted over 5 years ago

$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
See attached photo. I am an architect and need someone to confirm the sizing of a small beam that is going to replace a portion of an old 4" x 8" beam. The new portion will be 6' long over a sliding glass impact door. I've also attached the general design idea for the new wall. Please ask me any questions before bidding. I am looking for someone that is familiar with high wind zone as well, we are in a zone that needs to design for 170 mph gusts (Florida). I do a lot of work and need a reliable engineer to consult on jobs like this. Please keep that in mind when you place your bid!

Hi, sr. My name is Gustavo and I am a Structural Engineer with6 years of experience in this kind of project. I checked both attached files, and in your case, I think the best scenario is to design a steel beam that resists the same load as the wood beam PLUS verify the deflection of that beam, so we guarantee that the glass door won't be affected by that beam deflection. This kind of project needs to be accurate, safe and have an optimized section size, once it´s just for a beam and those connections. For that, I will take a day and my budget is $150 with freelancer fee. Note that I will deliver the connection with the 4''x4'' steel column already with details. I'm always updated with this kind of renovation, so if you would like a timber with steel beam or a wood&steel joists for the floor frame, just let me know. PS: high wind zone is not a problem for me to design an optimized solution. Thanks for the offer. Almir Gustavo PROTEC

Hello, I've read the description and reviewed the files. It is usually not recommended to use a beam with the same height and width because the height of the beam is one of the most important aspects regarding flexural resistance, and a square section also reduces torsion resistance. But, It is possible to do it, if the beam is reviewed with the proper design and calculations. I'm a civil engineer and I've been working as a structural designer for the past three years, I've made the structural design for reinforced concrete structures and steel structures. Feel free to visit my profile and give a look to my portfolio, I hope you my skills suitable for this project, and I'll be glad to participate.

I'm capable of manual and computerized design and analysis of steel members and connections according to AISC code. I can use multiple structural analysis and design software; such as ETABS, SAFE, SAP2000, STAAD Pro. Also I'm capable of analyses of seismic and wind effects on buildings using dynamic and static analytical methods according to UBC code and I can take your location's wind effects in consederation. I can design you required steel beam once you with the layout of your roof (as I can see the beam will support the roof only). Also I'm capable of analyses of seismic and wind effects on buildings using dynamic and static analytical methods according to UBC code.
