With over a decade of experience in architectural and structural engineering work, I have the expertise needed to properly size and select an appropriate steel beam for your project. I am highly proficient with building regulations and familiar with the unique considerations that come with working on timber-framed structures like yours in Ireland. My extensive background in 2D and 3D modeling will also prove invaluable as I calculate the necessary beam size for your specific span needs. Not only will I provide the calculations for your steel beam, but I can also offer guidance on its installation and support if required. Throughout my career, providing clear and detailed guidance has been one of my strong suits. I will ensure that not only you have a perfectly sized beam, but you also know exactly how it should be installed and what kind of support it requires. In addition to my capabilities in structural engineering, my diverse set of skills - including in-depth knowledge architecture and building design - enables me to see the bigger picture when sizing this beam for you. Since our homes are an interconnected system, I can ensure that this alteration will not negatively impact other areas, such as impacting space lighting or affecting any upcoming renovations thereby giving you a solution that's both optimal and holistic.

I can help assess the stud wall removal and provide a practical steel beam sizing approach for the 3.2 m span. I am Irish, now living in the Philippines, with 15+ years of mechanical design and fabrication experience. I am a qualified metal fabricator and an Autodesk Inventor specialist, with strong experience in steelwork, frames, supports, brackets, fabrication drawings, and practical installation details. For this project, I can review the wall layout, span, floor/roof loading, bearing points, timber frame details, and any photos or sketches you have. I can help determine a suitable steel beam size, support requirements, padstone or bearing details, and provide a clear drawing or note package for review. Because this is structural work in a house, the final beam size and installation should be checked and signed off by a qualified local structural engineer or building professional if required for Irish building compliance. I can still help prepare the calculations, layout, steel sizing options, and drawings so the engineer or builder has clear information to work from. I can work from your measurements, photos, house layout, wall position, joist direction, and any attic/floor loading details.

I can help assess the requirements for replacing the timber stud wall with an appropriate steel beam solution by reviewing the structural arrangement, calculating the likely loading conditions, evaluating suitable steel section options for the 3.2 m span, and preparing clear guidance on bearing points, supports, installation considerations, and coordination with building regulations. My approach will focus on practical residential construction methods while considering deflection limits, connection details, and compatibility with timber-framed structures. Would you like the output as a simple sizing recommendation for contractor discussion, or a more formal structural calculation package suitable for engineer review and approval?

Hello, With nearly a decade of experience in the field of residential structural engineering and a skill set that encompasses both architecture and structural engineering, I am confident that I would be an excellent fit for your project. Although based in southern California, my broad range of licensure extends to over 30 states across the US, including Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Texas - meaning I have dealt with a diverse array of building regulations and can easily adapt to any local requirements. Structural assessments such as steel beam sizing are my bread and butter. Having worked on numerous timber-framed homes during my career, I am acutely familiar with the complexities involved in these structures. My expertise would enable me to accurately calculate the necessary steel beam size for your 3.2-meter span. Moreover, as a professional engineer, my commitment to ensuring the safety and stability of structures cannot be overstated. In addition to providing you with precise calculations for the steel beam sizing, I can also provide comprehensive guidance on installation or support if required. Trusting your project to me means entrusting it to someone who views your safety as paramount. My ultimate goal is not just to meet but exceed your expectations, allowing you to confidently proceed with your wall removal project. Let's get started! Thanks!

Hello, I can assist with the structural assessment required for removing the stud wall and determining the appropriate steel beam size for the 3.2 m span in your timber-framed home. With experience in residential structural design and timber-frame construction, I understand the importance of correctly identifying load paths before selecting a beam, ensuring the modification remains safe, practical, and compliant with applicable building requirements. The process will include eviewing the existing wall location, determining whether it is load-bearing, assessing roof, floor, and any point loads carried by the wall, and calculating the required steel section based on the structural demands. I will also provide guidance on bearing requirements, padstones if needed, temporary support during installation, and any considerations that should be discussed with your contractor or local building control authority. To begin, I would require photographs of the wall, floor plans (if available), details of the floor and roof structure above, and any dimensions relevant to the area. Once reviewed, I can provide beam sizing recommendations, supporting calculations, and practical installation guidance to help you move forward confidently. I am available to start immediately and can typically provide the assessment and recommendations within 1–2 days of receiving the required information
