Residential Structural Design
CPP Structural is capable of utilizing conventional wood framing, heavy timber framing, steel, and concrete. This multifaceted design approach allows us to select the structural system that best fits our clients desired function and form.
Timber framing with SIPs panels can be used to create the quintessential alpine lodge cathedral ceiling. Steel framing allows us to create stunning openings, unobstructed floor plans, and cantilevered structures without sacrificing building performance. Engineered wood products are typically used with conventional framing methods, but can achieve higher strength than sawn lumber and can be used in more elaborate designs.
A hybrid structural system can be created from a combination of any of these building systems. A hybrid system balances the architectural design with building strength and cost-effective construction methods.
Steel Stair Specialist
Many of today’s modern, intricate, or long-span staircases utilize steel stringers for safety and performance. CPP Structural can work with you to bring your steel stair concepts to life. Steel stairs require meticulous attention to detail and experience in steel fabrication to achieve great results. CPP Structural provides stamped engineering drawings, required by many building permit offices, and can partner with steel fabricators to design and install custom steel stairs.
Contemporary floating stairs often feature architecturally-exposed steel stringers which contribute to the modern style. While traditional stairs typically conceal framing, these stairs can still benefit from utilizing steel stringers when they have large spans or complex configurations.
For stair designs that require the strength, versatility, or modern look of steel framing, partner with CPP Structural for steel stair engineering.
Home Inspections
CPP Structural can provide general home inspections that accompany many real estate transactions. Home inspections are a common, but important, step in buying a home. Home owners can also benefit from periodic home inspections to identify any issues with your home that may have gone unnoticed. The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI) provides an itemized list of the items that are covered by a home inspector in a general inspection.
CPP Structural also provides structural-specific inspections for foundations and framing. Have you noticed foundation cracks, bowing walls, uneven floors, or doors and windows that stick? These could be signs of foundation issues. Evaluation by a licensed structural engineer is always recommended for foundation repairs. Are you planning to remove a wall, relocate basement columns, or build an addition? Most building permit offices require a stamped engineers drawing for structural modifications of your home.
