Engineer’s Foundation Evaluation

The purpose of an Engineer’s Foundation Evaluation is to have an Engineer investigate and
determine, to the extent possible, the foundation’s current condition and any necessary repairs
that may be needed immediately and/or in the future.

We, through a partnership with Noble Engineering Services, understand that foundation issues
can be a cause for concern for property owners, and we aim to provide clear and concise
information to help you make informed decisions about any repairs needed for your property.

The evaluation by our team generally includes:

• Documenting visual observations made during a physical walkthrough
• Observing factors influencing the performance of the foundation
• Conducting an interview of occupants/owners/managers regarding a history of the
  property and foundation
• Reviewing pertinent information including Geotech reports, construction drawings, field
  reports, and repair docs
• Providing elevation, deflection, and tilt calculations to assess foundation performance
  and establish a baseline
• Providing a detailed conclusion and Executive Summary.

HUD/ FHA Mobile Home Structural Engineering Inspections

We, through a partnership with Noble Engineering Services, can perform a Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) structural engineering inspection to meet the requirements under the
Permanent Foundations Guide for Manufactured Housing (PFMGH).

Our team will visually assess the existing foundation and determine if a permanent foundation is
present, attached, sound, and fully supported per the PFMGH requirements for HUD.

Out ream can then customize an engineering report for you and your lender (depending on VA,
FHA, or Conventional financing).
