Expert Truss Design & Engineering Consultation
Get Expert Truss Guidance Before You Build
The best time to involve a truss engineer is early — during design, not after plans are finalized. Mike Walker Lumber Co Inc's design consultation service helps architects, builders, and homeowners make informed structural decisions before committing to a design that may be more expensive or complex than necessary.
Our engineering team reviews your project plans and provides recommendations on truss type selection, span optimization, bearing point placement, and cost-saving alternatives. A 30-minute consultation can save thousands in material and labor costs on the finished project.
Who Benefits from Truss Design Consultation
Architects who want to verify that their roof design is truss-friendly before finalizing plans. Builders who need to value-engineer a project to hit a budget target. Homeowners planning a custom build who want to understand their roof framing options. Developers evaluating feasibility of a building design. Engineers seeking truss-specific input on a structural system.
What We Cover in a Consultation
Feasibility: Can your design be built with trusses, and what are the constraints? Value engineering: Are there alternative truss configurations that achieve the same result for less cost? Logistics: What will the truss package cost, how long will it take, and what are the delivery requirements? Problem-solving: If you have a structural challenge, we'll help you find the truss-based solution.
