FRAMING DESIGN

Attention to detail during the design phase means fewer delays, allowing a shorter construction schedule.

 

A properly engineered structure is built more efficiently with less material waste. The MLAW team can size selected wood or steel structural members, design the entire framed structure, or consult with you to achieve your goals.

Intuitive Load Design

MLAW framing designs include loads to pre-engineered trusses if required, review of submittals from truss suppliers, and any revision to our drawings made necessary by them. We calculate from the roof down to the foundation, including all dead load, live load, and roof live load values in the plan, as well as the deflection criteria of each beam. This ensures a seamless construction process and the most efficient design possible, saving you money.
