ᐅ Structural engineer needed for preliminary assessment of load-bearing capacity

We purchased a plot of land with an existing basement last year. (The prefabricated house that was there was removed after a fire.)
The basement is in good condition, and we want to build on top of it again.
All static documentation for the basement and foundation is available and has been digitized as PDFs.

We are now primarily wondering whether the load-bearing capacity of the basement and foundation in principle would be suitable for a monolithic 1.5-story solid masonry house (Poroton or similar).

Is there a structural engineer or building engineer here who could take a look? Naturally, payment can be arranged if it requires significant effort.

400€ (about $435)... That almost covers just the cost of preparing the quote and invoice. Someone is offering rock-bottom prices here, but for the mistakes, it's still too expensive.

You can also save the 400 euros. See post #21
