This 20,000 sq. ft. wood-framed plantation house was designed with an off-grade pier foundation and helical anchors under each pier because of soil issues. The roof is a mix of trusses and common framing, and steel beams were required above the garage to support the massive spans and storage loads. Additional design was required for the real stone fireplaces to assure the chimney was structurally adequate and that the foundation could support the extra load.

This house is constructed on piles with poured in place concrete beams supporting an insuldeck first floor, including a semi-circular beach front porch. The upper floors are trussed and the roof is common framed. Insulated concrete form was used for the exterior walls. A complicated interior wood beam system was required since many of the walls did not line up from floor to floor.

This beach house is constructed of insulated concrete form walls with extra concrete columns to handle the excess shear force caused by the large amount of windows. The front glass is supported with steel beams that tie into the ICF walls. Since the ground floor is taller than average we also added concrete columns to the ground floor for shear resistance. The center roof is framed out of arched glulams.
