RSJ and Structural Wall Demolition 

RSJ Installation House Extension

After the Extension was Watertight it was time to bring the house into the new space. We installed 2 RSJ's which took a few days to make sure all the mortar had set. After the mortar had time to set we then took the back wall of the old finished house down, taking our time not to disturb anything. RSJ's were sat on pad stones either side and signed off by building control as we had altered the structure. 

Roof Framed and Felted

After Extension had been made, the roof was framed out of 7x2 C24 which was what the architect and Structural Engineer calculated. Partitions walls were then added to separate the Front Porch Toilet from the Utility Room. The roof was then felted to make watertight.
