It’s all in the details. 🔍

Ever wonder how architects achieve those perfectly clean rooflines? It’s all about the engineering behind the scenes. For this stunning new build, we engineered a breezeway with a hidden internal drain system, supporting a massive butterfly roof on a robust steel wide fl**ge skeleton.

At Shear Force Engineering, we specialize in making complex designs structurally sound. 💡

Modular doesn’t mean one-size-fits-all!🏠

With a permanent foundation and engineered connections, modular homes can be expanded, reinforced, and customized to meet site-specific loads and local codes without sacrificing efficiency. 💫

We’ve worked with multiple modular companies to design truly custom homes. DM for more info!
