What Fulton property owners are deciding
Most Fulton owners call a structural engineer only after someone demands stamped drawings. An unstamped design can stall a permit or, worse, quietly transfer load to the wrong member. The answer comes from analysis of your actual structure, not from a rule of thumb.
