The snow kept me inside all weekend!!
As i was at a loose end i have gone through some old textbooks etc when i was studying HNC civil engineering.
I feel confident now that i can calculate a structural design and selection of the right size steel beams for my (pretty full on) diy house extension Knock throughs, I can provide the calculations for BC.....heres the question though!!
Am i right in saying I dont need to be a proffessional strut engineer with PI indemnity, and that Building control will check my calcs anyway, and that if i was to make a mistake ( i would submit calcs well before work being undertaken) then it would be flagged up by LAs own engineers.
My ethos for this is that if the design is right..then its right....
Any comments
Thanks
