transcript: Today I’m going to show you exactly how I remove this load bearing wall in this German brick house. 3.2 meters long of this cavity wall is to be removed. This will then connect the kitchen and the living room and also make space for a larger dining area. This is the side of the kitchen and this is the other side of the living room. The kitchen is a long, narrow room and the wall opening is intended to give it a more open feeling and provide more daylight. The double-sided wall with a cavity inside is to be supported with two steel beams. This is clear from the static calculations that were done by a professional, so the correct beams are ordered and delivered in advance. I ordered steel beams HEA-120 (S235). If you pay 20 dollars more, the steel beams are also already treated with rust protection. During this construction, the old kitchen still needs to be used, so I got a construction foil and a few battens. With these I create a separation to keep dust away from the kitchen throughout the construction phase. The ceiling is sheetrock, so simple chipboard screws can be used. It’s easier to use shorter battens and I put the screws in ahead of time, so that the screws don't fall out while I’m hanging it, and it's easier to tuck the foil under. It should also be as dust-proof as possible at the bottom. I tape the foil to the wall with a wide painter's tape. This junction box is located around the area where a steel beam will be installed later. I have had rather bad experiences with cable finders. I turn off the power and expose the cable to see where it runs in the wall and if I can relocate it. Now I draw the opening on the wall. I start drawing in the location of the new steel beams.

Very in depth video, thank you very much! It filled in some information gaps for me. :)
glad to hear the video helped you, you're welcome
I love demo work. Excellent job and technique,
thank you glad you like my video, have a great day
Great, simply great! 👏
thank you
Any structural engineer would tell you to put the strong boys above the beam level to support the weight above. That wall is completely unsupported when you remove the props to install the beam.
you're probably right but it worked well this way
Lucky guys.
@@CarlsImprovements hahahaha..what a bad answer..
Super vídeo. Starting exactly the same job with 3.2m next week. Thank you for the full video/tutorial 😅🔝👍
Welcome and thanks, hope your works goes well
Awesome work
thank you
Excelente he aprendido muchísimo!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Muchas gracias! Me encantó tu vídeo , hablas pausado y claro! Y demuestras en ellos que eres profesional y meticuloso! Me he suscripto porque TU LO VALES
thank you very much, muy amable, gracias por subscription 👍🤗
Superb work..done so smoothly..
thank you
Very neat job 👏🏼 How long did it take in all? Also, what's the purpose of wetting the plaster as it's drying?
thank you, well It took me like a week or so but I also had to film everything and I was by myself. wetting the concrete helps it to complete the chemical hardening process. the old Walls where try and hold out the the moisture quickly.
Great video! Just out of curiosity, is there a second story? Is that why steel was required? I want to do a similar thing but am supporting a roof, so hoping to get away with concrete lintels.
Didn't look like a 2nd story did it. Worth asking a structural engineer to access for your project I would say
Great work, where did you purchase your strong boy masonry supports? Are you in the US or what do you call them?
i bought them from Great Britain: ebay.us/GAGkrW
Are the brick used to support the steel beam strong engineering brick as it looks like you used soft bricks that can crack and crush?
you are right, i could have put new concrete corner stones, thank you
beautifully done, how long did it take from start to finish?
1week
thank you very much, yes it took about a week but that was the first time i did this all by myself and that also included filming
Great job, just a couple of questions.
1) How wide was the thickness of the wall?
2) how wide were the steel beams? (I think the height was 12Cm, not sure about the width)
Thanks
thank you, the wall is about 40cm, each beam was 12x12 cm, hope that helps and good luck
@CarlsImprovements
Great, thank you again. I will need a lot of luck.
My wall is 50 cm and installing 2 beams. Each 22cn x 22Cm.
Not sure how am I going to lift them lol
Question, so you cut out the entire wall, no need to support the wall over , just chased it out and slotted the beam in, I'm no engineer but that seems like a lot of potential load from above with no support
Exactly, he put some support in when hammering the bricks out and then he takes all the support away 😂. Didn't need to put back the supports afterwards, could also use a couple of wedges between the beam and brickwork. Actually that would be even better because wedges put some pre tension on the steel beam. But still: brave to take the supports away just after he made a big hole in the wall.
@@idontgiveaship2575 I've got a meter long walk I want to remove, taking external wall over, need to remove a steep and drop in a longer one, think I'll pay the experts for this one :)
the beams are there to have the wall not settle over time. if you do the opening without beams you will get big cracks above over time. usually for a very short time nothing happens. while chiseling i put the supports because of the vibration, i didnt want any bricks to get loose
@@CarlsImprovementsthat's not how it works. A wall is under a certain load, linear load also called. when a linear load is interrupted the load will spread to the remaining sections of the wall. This settling is not always noticable but can't be reversed.(you could push back with screw jacks or hydraulics but most likely cause some damage elsewhere)
When we do a job like this(usually bigger beams under 3 or 4 floors) we put the beam infront of the props before we start demolition so we can leave the props in place when we put the beam in.
Where can I get your information for a similar project in Florida??
thank you very much for your interst, this video was made in germany, thank you and have a good day
What is size of beams which is u use this video??
120 x 120 mm
This guy hasn't discovered plasterboard yet?
I wanted to have it more sturdy and like the rest of the wall
The pad stones seemed rather small?
maybe but both beams get theirs
How many days did it take
probably half day
the whole process of couple days because I've never done it before but I also had to film
Was a professional engineer required to be hired to engineer this?
i did it myself
Could you estimate the costs for this intervention?
the cost for the two beams were 300$ at that time but that depends on the price of steel, the rest was maybe another 150$, this does not include any tools, thank you and good luck with your project
@@CarlsImprovements sounds great ! You did an amazing work! Thank you
@@CarlsImprovements also if I may ask .. the project of the structural engineering team costs ?
