MBM Engineering and Inspection Services in Utah
Utah’s unique terrain—from Wasatch Range foothills to red rock canyons—demands more than routine inspections. Properties here face seismic activity, fluctuating temperatures, heavy snow loads, and expansive desert soils. At MBM Engineering and Inspection Services, we provide tailored structural solutions with an unwavering commitment to technical excellence.
Our experience with forensic structural engineering in Utah means we understand the hidden vulnerabilities beneath every slope, slab, and snow-covered roof. From Salt Lake City to Moab, we empower property owners with insight and action, grounded in engineering integrity.
Comprehensive Structural Engineering Services in Utah
A home structural engineering foundation inspection in Utah is essential to address early-stage settlement, frost heave, and unreinforced masonry in older homes. Our reports offer precise, actionable recommendations that lead to lasting value.
Core Services Include:
- Settlement and Frost Heave Detection: Using thermal imaging and elevation sensors, we identify seasonal ground movement and long-term shifts.
- Snow Load and Roof Framing Review: Heavy snowfall in northern Utah puts significant pressure on flat and pitched roofs. We evaluate trusses, snow guards, and weight distribution.
- Soil Compatibility and Expansion Testing: Desert soils behave differently than mountainous subgrades. Our inspections adapt foundation design to local geology.
- Retaining Wall and Hillside Stability: Properties built into slope or cliffside terrain require lateral load testing and drainage system checks.
