Larsen Engineering works primarily with wood frame buildings—both residential and commercial—providing the necessary “structural skeleton” for many types of architect designed projects. In the San Francisco Bay Area environment of steep hillsides, difficult soil conditions, earthquakes, and the need to preserve often stunning views, wood frame structural engineering requires a multitude of disciplines and materials. Among these are structural steel framing for long-span beams and seismic bracing, and the use of the latest engineered wood products for stronger and more dimensionally stable beams and joists. Frame design includes floor joist layout, wall framing layout, ceiling and rafter layout, seismic bracing and many types of steel fasteners. Phone: 415 332 7754 |
