hi all
our house has an attached brick garage.
this was constructed at the same time as the house.
its about 24 foot long and 8 foot wide.
we want to enlarge the kitchen by knocking into the garage.
the garage is single brick with piers in the middle and at both ends.
would we have to build an additional internal wall to provide a cavity fro insulation or could we build a wood frame onto the internal garage wall and then put insulation behind the wall and plaster board it.
any ideas of the of an 10 foot rsj and fitting it into the wall between the garage and the kitchen.
we want to leave the front part of th egarage as a store shed, how could we seperate this off dfrom the part of the garage that will, then become the kitchen.
could we build a stud wall with fire proofing or must it be brick or block.
cheers
