Thanks for all the feedback I really appreciate it :0)0

Online remote beam calcs are fine for straightforward single openings. There are plenty around who will charge £50-100 for a single beam.
Yous sounds a bit more complicated unless you've got measured plans/elevations correctly drawn for them to go from.0 -
I was going to use the only service them but how do they know the condition of the bearing walls etc. I payed around £180 for a structural calculation. I wouldn't always listen to what builders say, I phoned the local council and checked things with them before listening to builders. One said to me that you don't need steel use a concrete lintel, which the council werent happy with. Builders will have a rough idea of the size of steel needed as they will oversize it just to be safe, if they do without calculations.
If you do that you will still not get a completion ticket from BC as they will want to see the structural calcsI like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.
Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)
Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed0
