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.

Structural Expertise
Structures with large open rooms, long spanning beams, or heavy loads benefit from the expertise of an experienced firm like MLAW Engineers. Our team specializes in designing innovative solutions for complex structural challenges.

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.

Efficient & Cost-Effective
At MLAW Engineers, we strive to help you spend your money wisely while maintaining the structural integrity of your project. Our designs are clear, concise, and easy to read—a trademark of the MLAW Engineers design team.

Additional Services
MLAW Engineers also offer additional services, including lateral bracing, coastal design, and conventional stick framing design. Our program of services can help builders, architects, general contractors, and other construction professionals better coordinate the various phases of a typical construction project, increasing the flow of information, saving time, and eliminating confusion.
