Amazing work, love the walkthrough. What kind of load transfer does that mean to the floor underneath, now instead of having the load spread through all three walls it's in a few concentrated areas, how do you calculate that type of transfer to the foundation?

[@philgofberg]

My question as well. How are you able to do this without having to dig and add reenforced concrete pads around the existing footings where the supports for those beams rest, with HDU Holdowns or something similar?

[@doesntmatter5263]

@@philgofbergyou can’t. That slab is roughly 4 inches thick. Maybe 6” at the most. Supposed to saw it and pour a footer where the load ends. On the perimeter of the house it should already have a footer but where they rested that beam on that wall that concrete will settle and crack eventually leading to a big ol crack across that ceiling. Nobody understands when you take walls out that you have to transfer that load to the ground.

Great video! Thanks for the content. How did you connect the beams together where they meet?

AMAZING JOB!!! OH HOW I WISH YOU WERE IN CALFORNIA, i would hire you today!!!

[@colettewashington4214]

What size and type of beams was installed

[@LoadBearingWallPros]

On this job we had a 22', a 17', and a 10' beam. All steel wide flange I-beams.

[@maxwellpeck8770]

Hey love the content! What size steel i-Beam is that and what size are the boards?

[@VP411Designs]

Aqesome video, great company and people at LBWP. Do you need to add a ground rod for the steel beams? If so how do you setup?

[@LoadBearingWallPros]

No you don't

[@davidmatias6239]

I want to do a open floor plan the bearing wall it’s pretty long about 27 feet. Is there a maximum footage that’s allowed for a beam to be placed. or it doesn’t matter how long the beam is

[@thelouiebrand]

Just make sure it’s an LVL. You’d probably need a 3-4 ply 12” setup.

[@majqura4000]

How much for removing one loading wall 17 ft?

[@finestwoodcraftcustoms7458]

Nice 👍🏻 about how much was the total cost of your work ?

[@LoadBearingWallPros]

For the Wall Removal portion of this job, Typically we charge $6.5K to $7.5k for wall removal/beam install for 1st beam, and $1500 to $2250 per additional. This one had 3 walls so to remove those walls & add the beams it was around $13K

[@LoadBearingWallPros]

Around $9K for the 3 walls removed

[@nevergiveupfitness4710]

That is an amazing job!
