Code Based Shear Wall Markups
Have a plan that needs structural detail? We can help. We provide redline markup services to locate and spec hold downs, straps, nailing patterns, and blocking to your building and job location. Our shear wall markups are based on the International Residential Code and the Wood Frame Construction Manual and cover up to seismic zone D2 and 160 mph wind zones.
Fast & Affordable
Don't have time to wait or the need for a full engineering review? We can provide shear wall details for buildings up wood frame construction buildings up to 3 stories in height and 80 feet in dimension. Turnaround is typically less than a week. For simple structures such as 1 and 2 family dwellings this can save time and money.
