I need a licensed structural engineer to review the attached shop drawing, perform the required wind-load calculations, and provide an engineered, signed, and sealed drawing suitable for project submittal. The existing design includes: * 7'-0" high fixed-knot game fence * Permeable 75% windscreen fabric with grommeted hems * 2-1/2" O.D. steel line posts at 8'-0" on center maximum * 3" O.D. terminal, corner, end, pull, and gate posts * Continuous top rail and bottom tension wire * Concrete-set posts * Typical footing currently shown as 12" diameter and 42" deep The goal is to keep the fence design exactly as shown whenever structurally feasible. Please do not change the post spacing, post sizes, fence height, rail configuration, or footing design unless the calculations demonstrate that a change is required. Engineering scope shall include: * Calculate wind loads using the applicable building code and ASCE 7 requirements adopted by the project jurisdiction. * Account for the actual porosity/open-area characteristics of the 75% windscreen using manufacturer data or another defensible engineering method. * Verify line posts, terminal posts, top rail, bracing, connections, windscreen attachments, post spacing, concrete footing diameter, and embedment depth. * Consider project wind speed, exposure category, risk category, topographic factors, soil conditions, and other applicable site criteria. * Identify any required material specifications, including pipe wall thickness, steel grade, concrete strength, and connection requirements. * Provide complete structural calculations signed and sealed by the engineer. * Provide a final signed and sealed shop drawing. The engineer may revise or reproduce the attached drawing under their own title block as required to take professional responsibility for the design. If the design does not pass as currently shown, recommend the smallest practical modification. Vents or reinforced openings may be cut into the windscreen if necessary to reduce wind loading. Any required vent size, spacing, location, and edge reinforcement must be clearly detailed. Changes to post sizes, spacing, bracing, or footings should only be recommended if vents or other minor adjustments are insufficient. The selected engineer must hold an active Professional Engineer license in the project state and be authorized to seal this type of structural work. Please include your licensed states, relevant fence or windscreen design experience, anticipated turnaround time, and fixed fee in your proposal. The exact project location, governing jurisdiction, design criteria, available geotechnical information, windscreen product data, and editable drawing files will be provided to the selected engineer.

I understand you're seeking a licensed structural engineer to perform wind-load calculations for a game fence, similar to the structural analysis I've completed for high-wind tension fabric structures. My expertise in wind engineering for exposed elements directly aligns with your project's requirements. My approach will involve a detailed review of the shop drawings and site-specific wind speed data. I will utilize ASCE 7-16 (or latest applicable standard) for wind load determination, considering the fence's geometry, fabric porosity, and post spacing. Calculations will focus on post bending, shear, and overturning moments, as well as footing capacity, to ensure compliance with relevant building codes. I will then provide a revised drawing with updated footing details and a stamped, signed report. To best tailor my proposal, could you confirm the intended project location or wind zone? Additionally, are there any specific code requirements or client standards that need to be prioritized? I'm available to discuss your project in more detail at your convenience.

Hello, I have experience with structural reviews, wind-load analysis, fence and screen support systems, and permit-ready calculation packages. I do not personally hold the required state PE license, but I work with an actively licensed structural engineer who can review the design and provide the required signed and sealed calculations and drawings. We will verify the fence, posts, rails, bracing, connections, footing, and windscreen attachments using the applicable code and ASCE 7 criteria, including windscreen porosity and site conditions. We will keep the current design unchanged wherever it passes and recommend only the minimum revisions needed if any component is overstressed. The final package will include sealed calculations and a sealed shop drawing suitable for submittal. Thanks for reading my proposal. Edwin

I will review your shop drawings and perform the necessary wind-load calculations to provide an engineered, signed, and sealed drawing suitable for submittal. I will use AutoCAD to import your existing shop drawings and then apply ASCE 7-16 wind load provisions for the specified fence height and permeable fabric. Post spacing will remain at 8'-0" on center maximum as requested. I will analyze the capacity of the 2-1/2" O.D. line posts and 3" O.D. terminal posts against the calculated wind pressures, also checking the continuous top rail and bottom tension wire. The concrete-set posts and footing design will be assessed, assuming the 12" diameter by 42" deep footing for typical posts will be adequate for the calculated loads unless the analysis shows otherwise. This footing assumption is what I will use until you advise differently. My structural engineering approach will focus on verifying the existing post and footing sizes for the wind loads. I have a 5.0 rating across 10 reviews on here, and Preferred Freelancer status. What is the intended wind speed or design wind pressure for this location? I will have a reviewed and annotated shop drawing ready for your review within two days.
