Cost to spec a steel?


Recommended Posts

I've started building a single story kitchen extension. 

 

I'm wondering if it would be worth putting two steels across the span of the building for the future. Incase I want to add a second story on top. Making the flat roof stronger and future proofing the build. 

 

Would someone be even willing to spec the steel without drawings? 

 

Any input would be useful.

 

Thanks.

To do it properly, the steel and any other structural aspects would need to be specified and signed off by a structural engineer.  Not sure they would be able to do that, without a drawing, so they could determine the imposed loads etc.

If you have firm proposals for what you want to do it will be possible to spec the steels.  I had someone online spec 3 steel beams at a cost of £200 plus VAT.  Included bearing details and calcs.

Would it be possible to pm the details please?
