When carrying out structural alterations to a building, certain projects require installing a Rolled Steel Joist (RSJ) to safely support loads. RSJs are essential for maintaining structural integrity when removing or altering walls, creating openings, or adding new load-bearing elements. The following projects typically require RSJ installation to ensure safety and compliance with building regulations:
Steel beams prevent cracks, collapse, and damage. Techniques include reinforcement, bracing, retrofitting, and the use of high-quality materials.
Constructed with reinforced materials, they distribute loads efficiently, prevent damage, enhance durability, and maintain building integrity.
RSJs are often needed when removing interior walls, whether you want to create a flexible interior, improve light and airflow, or encourage socialisation.
RSJs are crucial when creating openings in load-bearing walls to join extensions to the rest of the house. Certain extensions also need extra structural support.
Significant alterations or opening up the garage to connect it to the rest of the house may require an RSJ.
Some renovations involve altering the layout of the kitchen or the whole floor. Where this affects load-bearing walls, additional support will be needed.
