Scope of Work This proposal outlines the structural engineering plan for modifying load-bearing elements within the house. The work consists of two main tasks: • Removing the 1st-floor interior load-bearing wall and replacing it with LVL beams and wooden columns. • Replacing the main load-bearing beam in the basement with LVL beams supported by existing and new CMU walls. Proposed Solution 1st Floor Modifications To minimize the ceiling drop below 7’-11”, I propose installing three LVL beams, each measuring 1 ¾” x 9 ¼”. These beams will be supported by 4x4 wooden columns, ensuring structural integrity and alignment with the overall design goals. Basement Modifications The current load-bearing beam of 6x8 dimensions will be replaced with two LVL beams, each measuring 1 ¾” x 7 ¼”. The beams will be supported at both ends on the existing CMU wall and in the middle on a new CMU wall specifically constructed for additional support and stability. Additional Notes • The plan adheres to local structural engineering standards and building codes. • Details and dimensions are based on the provided drawings for reference. • All modifications will be executed with careful consideration of load distribution and safety to ensure long-term stability. Conclusion This proposal presents a streamlined and efficient solution for the removal and replacement of the specified load-bearing elements. By employing engineered LVL beams and wooden/CMU supports, we aim to achieve structural soundness while maintaining the aesthetic and practical elements of the space. Thank you for reviewing this proposal. Please feel free to reach out for any clarifications or adjustments based on your requirements.
