Have you thought about how you will support the wall above and the disruption to both upstairs rooms?
Looking at your image, shows the upstairs flooring across the surface of the steel. Am I right in thinking this beam is only supporting the floor joists and there is no wall above? If so ignore the first sentence above.
I would remove at least a metre section of ceiling in both rooms and fit the support plank directly to the joist bottoms to ensure the joists are evenly propped.
Hi.
Just a floor above. Bedroom is being decorated above so not too arduous to remove floor boards.
Bolts are staggered every 600mm.
Was planning on using these.
