Where am I supposed to get a structural engineer so quickly now, and honestly, a five-figure amount just doesn’t work anymore for all the love in the world...
Finding a structural engineer shouldn’t be a problem. If you don’t know one in the immediate vicinity of your construction site, check the website of the engineering chamber of your federal state. There you will find member lists; under structural engineers, you can look for one near you. An appointment should be possible within 1-2 weeks, at least that was the case for us.
A structural engineer might have another idea and can perhaps already say something about the approximate costs.
For us, unfortunately, it was a mid-five-figure amount last year, but that all depends on the length and size.
