Just installed my first 30’ gluelam beam, it was 15” thick and it weighed like 1500lbs. We just had to brace the joists into it to flush out the ceiling.

That’s awesome! It’s some of my favorite work. We have a video coming up soon we will post of a 30’ but we are waiting on permits approval. Stay tuned!

What was the span of the beam and what was the width and height of the beam? I liked the idea of using the car jack to get the beam in place.

I'm trying to do a similar project but don't know how thick the support beam needs to be, and how thick the posts should be. Any advice for me?

Call you structural engineer and ask him for beam size etc without a stamp. Should be around 200$

Great video, very helpful. For existing home with load bearing wall, Can you join two small beams using metal connector between the two together to make one long beam to get rid of a column holding up the weight?

Loved the vid. Not in your area but what’s a reasonable price range I should expect from a contractor for a 20ft span single story? Beam and install, no finish work
@everythingresidential2 жыл бұрын
okay there is 2 ways of doing this. you can either permit it or not permit it. Not permitting the project will be much cheaper but could bite you in the butt . if you don't permit it you can reach out to an (engineer not an engineer firm) to size the beam for you, post size, and footer size. but tell them not to put a seal on it so they are not responsible which makes it dramatically cheaper. but now you have a schematic to build relatively cheap. To hire a contractor to throw a temp wall and cut the rafters and install the beam will probably run you between 1800-3500. it can all be done in one day with 3 people and that doesn't include cutting and installing a footer. If you decide to permit it. engineer 300-500$ with stamp. permit fees lees than 300$. Blueprint of house with notes indicating where beam is going and setbacks etc, you can do this yourself if not another 300-600$. if footer isn't sized correctly. Ripping out footings, inspection, pouring concrete probably 1500-2000$ Than to hire a licensed contractor to perform the work (temp wall, beam install) 2500-4500$ also if you open the ceiling the wires are to short to lift in the air or something unexpected shows up you can expect a change order and additional cost from a contractor. hope that helps.

Follow up- turns out we had 3 load bearing walls to remove to make the house truly open concept. We ended up doing all the work ourselves. Our engineering was $1000 for specs for 3 walls. We ended up with a 26ft span, 20 ft span and a 13ft span. Lvl cost for 5 beams was $1200 lumber and random other stuff (ie duct hoist) $1000. Luckily we had all the tools needed. It took us 3 days to ddinishsVc

@everythingresidential2 жыл бұрын
We know because there is currently a load bearing wall, another day to find to is get a 36 inch concrete drill bit and drill into the concrete where yo think a footer is. You will feel the drill bit go past the concrete into the dirt.

You failed to address how you determined that you have a properly sized concrete pad under the 4x6 beam to support the added load!
@everythingresidential3 жыл бұрын
If you look closely there is a structural post that supports the old beam and the glulam beams that run perpendicular to it, therefore the 4x6 post we added has an adequate footer underneath it. regarding where the beam ends near the French doors, that entire wall is load bearing supporting a 2 story house (roof plus floor) and balcony which means when they built the house the footer had to be sized for that. So in conclusion the concrete pad is rated to support that beam and post! Thanks for the comment!
