FAQs

While planning permission might not be required for knocking down an internal wall, you’ll likely need building control approval. If your property is a listed building or located in a conservation area, additional restrictions may apply. It’s advisable to consult with a structural engineer to assess the situation.

The load-bearing capacity of an RSJ is not a one-size-fits-all figure, but rather a nuanced aspect influenced by several factors including RSJ type, load, span and length, connections, and more. Consulting a structural engineer or construction professional is advised to determine how much weight an RSJ can support.
-
Structural engineers are highly qualified professionals trained in assessing the load-bearing capacity of structures. They possess the expertise to evaluate building plans, conduct on-site inspections, and ascertain if a wall is load-bearing or not.
-
The cost of steel beams for a load-bearing wall can vary from a few hundred to several thousand pounds, contingent upon your project's specific demands. It's essential to collaborate with professionals to accurately assess your needs and obtain a precise cost estimate.

While it is possible to remove load-bearing walls to create a more open and functional living space, it is not a DIY project. Professional expertise is vital to ensure the safety and structural integrity of your home.
