Load Bearing Wall Specialists Kelsall
Every property contains load bearing walls, sometimes positioned to carry loads from upper floors, and sometimes to distribute loads throughout an existing space across extended spans.
One of the most crucial steps before commencing any internal renovation within your property is to identify which walls are load bearing walls and which are not.
If you are remodelling the interior of your home and seeking a more open plan layout, it is likely you will be removing a supporting wall, which will necessitate reinforcement with a new load bearing RSJ beam.
Steel beam (RSJ) installation and load bearing wall removal create additional internal space, for instance, opening up the ground floor layout by removing a structural wall and transferring its load onto a steel beam. The work encompasses the structural engineer’s calculations and building control approval, temporary support (Acrows and Strongboys) whilst the wall is removed, installing the steel onto padstones, building in the beam, and making good walls, floors and ceilings.
Also utilised to create large openings for extensions, knock throughs and wide bi fold or sliding door openings.
