Hello everyone,
looking for a bit of advice,
I have a 2 story, 1 room wide dettached house (3 up, 3 down), and want to remove an internal wall between the 2 back rooms.
this will be removed from floor to roof, and runs inline with the joists.
I have already removed one wall like this to open up the stairs so i know these are not load bearing.
Do internal single skin wall have any other effects on the structure?
im thinking maybe to tie in the external walls from bowing? or are the external walls strong enough for the roof without any internal wall support.
Thanks in advance,
Drew
