They are <br />as follows: <br />1) A new beam line two feet offset from the existing beam line, lining up two point <br />Ioads aba�re, but increasing the existing f�oor Joist length on one side by two feet. V4'ith <br />respect to the footing at th� new location, the �urrent stab depth is appr�ximately six <br />inches thick. If sawcutting to install a new footing, we woutd recommend a 8"xi6" <br />footing with (2) #4's continuous. Another �ption wauid be to spread any point loads <br />from above. The owner has s«ggested using 4"x7"x1/2" steel plates between the existin� <br />slab and the pc�st. We have reviewec� that option and take no exception to that�with the <br />owner's acknaw�eclgement there may be some minor cracking in the concrete with the <br />new posts. <br />2) �'Ve understand the floor joists are to he sistered and take no exception to the <br />length increasing by two feet. Tl�e praposed steel beam wili t�e stron�er than the exi�ting <br />6x6 and the spans between the posts may be mociified up to the code limits fc>r deflection <br />(L/240 for DL + LL). <br />3} We have reviewed the �rea ara�:nd the basement hallway �eiling involving the 3" <br />sc�uare tube stee( support �nd take no exceptivn to this revisian. <br />Should you have any questians, please feeI free to give me a�Cal( at (3fi0) 331-3113. <br />
