Hi Tony Thanks for explaining some details. This is how the joists run in the house

Similar plan to mine. Blue square is where there is 2 blocks in loft at top of this wall with the roof beam resting on that runs through the 2 houses

Back of house. Wall is between patio an single door

His reason for it is lateral stability

Yes but I've had another se come in an has said what is that post never seen anything like this before. Said why is it not straight in wall. Really question if he actually new what he was doing. As said builder said he will take it out an go straight in wall

Hi Tony I was told to use a windpost an dig down to foundation to sit on an bolt into wall. Then connects to 8 x 4 rsj . Which found was daft. Builder has said rather put in wall

Hi wondering if a 100mm bearing is ok for steel to sit on . Builder is looking at putting 8x4 rsj straight into internal wall which would only have 100mm bearing then. Span is 3m the rsj will be under floor joists an there is a wall above and in loft there is block that roof timber sits on.

I got calcs off a structural engineer a 203x102 . But quadranti guy told me first that beam is fine an to put a windpost in. Which when I search internet not one person has what I have done. He told me to go ahead with the steel work. When hole was dug the engineer said he hasnt seen such deep...

Used a company called quadranti in chester person sent out he was structural an he told me what steel to use . I've been trying to get contact with you Woody you seem to no stuff about this on posts I've read. I'm not happy at all with what's done I asked him can it be changed for steel in wall...

Lateral stability is what he is saying

Plus it has been on steel for nearly 2 month now. Would it be ok to take down an redo it all

As can see the wall under slab is out of line with the wall that was there
