Hello folks, wanna-be DIYer fitting an RSJ to remove a wall.


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

Glad to be here. New first time buyer up in Glasgow and looking forward to picking a few brains as I take a wall down between my kitchen and dining room. Architect and Structural Engineer have completed their work, certification done, acro-props are up and the wall is down. I’ll make a more detailed post in the relevant forum to start gathering advice on laying a sleeper wall in the sub floor as a base for the SHS wind post.

 

In terms of myself, I’ve got a handy father (electrician) who’s always keen to help and lend tools. Grew up watching him tackle every house project he could by himself (bathrooms, deckings, fireplace removal, underfloor heating etc). Always tried to help and learn where I could, and only now that it’s my own house am I comfortable putting it all to the test. If I get it wrong it’s me rather than someone else that has to look at it right?
