Removal of internal walls in any structure has now become common to let light in and make the space more open. For similar reasons, today, open floor plans in a house are a popular concept. Structural engineers play an integral role in understanding which walls are safe to remove given the house\u2019s foundation. <\/p>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

There are two types of walls in any structure \u2013 load-bearing<\/a> and non-load-bearing \u2013 be it a house or an office building. As the name suggests, load-bearing walls hold most of the weight of a structure. Relying on these walls are the roof and the upper floors. Hence, the load that begins from the roof, comes all the way down to the foot of the walls. The external outer walls are load-bearing, while the internal walls may or may not be load-bearing. Such classification of the internal walls is entirely dependent on how the structure is designed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Wall removal is quite literally getting rid of a certain wall in the house or a structure. In essence, walls give support to the roof. Without walls in certain spots that provide support to a ceiling, there\u2019s always a danger of the ceiling simply collapsing, or putting the ceilings at risk of sagging<\/a>. Additionally, the floors above have the chance of becoming unlevelled. Drywall cracks may begin to appear, along with doors sticking. Therefore, wall removal is a delicate process that requires careful evaluation. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

As mentioned earlier, lots of very dangerous problems can come up when removing walls. Hence, warning signs are apparent and must be looked out for. Thus, a secondary problem in wall removal is getting a permit to go ahead with your plan as such issues might spring up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

When a wall is replaced, to help the ceiling and roof stay intact and have support, the wall should be replaced with a structural beam or posts. Another alternative is a structural beam and post to replace a wall. However, they don\u2019t exactly create an open floor plan as there is no emptiness in the room like a hall. Nonetheless, the more vertical standings, the better it is for the overall structure. Who is able to design such standings better than a structural engineer? <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
