Background

Built around Bay Area residential work.

Timbar Engineering is Vi Giang, PE, a licensed structural engineer with more than 10 years of residential experience in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The goal was simple: give Bay Area homeowners direct access to an experienced structural engineer, without the overhead of a larger firm. Every project is handled personally, from the first call through final inspection.

Vi has worked throughout the Bay Area long enough to know the structural conditions common to different neighborhoods, the local code amendments that apply in each city, and what building departments look for during plan review. That tends to mean fewer comments and faster permitting.
