walkereng :

I can help

walkereng :

Let me read your question abit closer

walkereng :

Before we get started I’d like to point out that a Professional Engineer’s standard of care typically includes a site visit to assess field conditions and get an overall understanding of the structure. This can obviously not be accomplished through the internet. The information provided here is meant for planning purposes only (general sizing and budgeting) and is based on the information provided by you. All loading cases considered are for vertical loads only, no lateral analysis has been completed. The information should be verified by a professional engineer who can visit the site to ensure that potentially important information has not been overlooked or omitted.

walkereng :

Will you be able to provide any lateral support along the 25' span?

walkereng :

What is this beam supporting?

walkereng :

What is the height of your column support?

walkereng :
