I went to look at a job yesterday. The owner of the building had gutted it and on the second floor, had installed an RSJ about 15ft long from an external wall to a single brick internal wall. He asked me if the RSJ was alright as it only had 75mm bearing on the internal brick wall. Another joiner had placed a 75mmx50mm piece of wood below and up tight to the RSJ and drilled and plugged it to the wall, in an attempt to provide a larger bearing for the RSJ.
I told him I didn't think BCO would accept it as it was, and he told me , he wasn't involving them on the job as the work was all internal.
The RSJ is about 270mm deep.
