Structural Systems: Wood, Steel, and Foundation
Proper structural construction is critical to the safety, longevity, and code compliance of any building. At Norex Engineering, we provide comprehensive inspections of wood framing, steel framing, and foundation systems to ensure they are constructed according to approved engineering plans, structural specifications, and local building codes.
We identify issues such as under-sized members, improper fastener installation, unsupported spans, misaligned framing, or deviations from the engineer's design—allowing timely corrections before costly or unsafe problems develop.
Our structural inspections are typically performed at key stages of construction and include verification of:
Framing layout and alignment
Beam and column sizing and placement
Connection hardware (nails, bolts, anchors, brackets)
Shear walls, lateral bracing, and tie-downs
Foundation depth, rebar placement, and formwork prior to pour
Footing and slab thickness, compaction, and curing
Whether you're working on a residential build, commercial project, or structural repair, our inspections help ensure your framing and foundation systems are structurally sound, built to spec, and ready for the next phase of construction.
