    • Hi, Cris!

      Thank you for visiting our site.

      As much as we’d like to help, we don’t have information about structural engineering yet. We’d make a post about it if and when we do come across such information, but for now, you might want to try your luck with other possible sources like the professional organization of structural engineers perhaps.
