Default Bob Crantz...Not exactly a contractor or a sailor!


Take a look, Bob! That's a 4 inch column centered beneath a 16 foot
span. Joints and loads matter a great deal. Even with a truss roof, a
wall above the beam can be trouble. Only a fool and an ass like you
would try to diagnose something like this without knowing the
variables.

This is the original room....

And this is afterwards, awaitiing the new 126 inch screen, HD
projector and SVS subs, which go in next week...

So tell us...how was it done? F plates, I-beam? Larger wood beam? No
mods at all? And since the guest room has almost the same span (and
two out of four joints) with a pole removed almost 6 years ago, can
you let us all know when I'll need to fix the drywall????? Both jobs
were done by the same person. Good luck!


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!
