internal wall removal

andyvilla1 · 6 Nov 2012

i have removed a kitchen wall - there is no wall direcly above it but there is one offset to it by 1m. The wall had got ceiling joists ( 7x2) on it and they span 5m.
The lounge has the same span joists with no support apart from each end.
Do i need to support with RSJ beam or would 7x2 ( 2 pieces together ) be sufficient??

If you've already removed it, and the floor is still up, then get yourself a lottery ticket as you are in a lucky streak

A steel beam would be good
