North Ogden is the fastest-growing pocket of the Ogden cluster and one of the more interesting cities to do residential structural work in. The bench lots come with real snow loads, real slope, and real custom-home ambition — all of which means real engineering, not just letter-writing.
What we do most in North Ogden
- Custom-home structural design for bench lots
- Tiered retaining walls on sloped properties
- Premium decks and patio covers (snow loads matter)
- Additions on established homes near downtown
- Foundation evaluations on older mid-century properties
A recent North Ogden project
A new custom home on a sloped bench lot needed a two-tier retaining wall system to create a usable back yard. Lower wall was 6 ft cantilever concrete; upper wall was 4 ft segmental block with geogrid. We designed the surcharge interaction between the walls and the drainage system. Engineering scope $2,100.
Working with us in North Ogden
25 minutes from Syracuse. Bench lot snow load and seismic considerations are non-negotiable here — we always design to specific elevation, not city averages.
