What A Wall Knock Through Is
A wall knock through is when a wall is demolished or ”knocked through” so that instead of having two separate and smaller rooms the client would have one much larger room . Walls that get knocked through are almost always load bearing .
Load bearing means that the wall is holding up major weight of the property, so if the wall isn’t removed properly then the home would be in major structural danger which is a risk to anyone living in the house. This is why it is essential that a structural expert who specialises in this work completes the job .
The Dangers Of A Wall Knock Through
All structural work can be dangerous if completed by a non structural expert. But wall knock throughs are especially dangerous because the loads that need supported are massive and if the above loads aren’t supported properly then the property is liable for major problems . The worst case scenario would be structural collapse of the property .
This is why it is vitally important that you contact a structural specialist first . If you go with a structural specialist you wont have the problems that generic builders commonly cause . We have seen countless clients who have decided to not go with the experts because the cost is a little bit less and the job has gone drastically wrong costing the client massively more ultimately.
The Proper Steps
The first proper step any expert contractor would do would be to set up the site so that the property is always clean throughout the work . After this we would structurally prop up the loads above the load bearing wall . This would be done by implementing structural supports and propping this with a propping devices called acrows.
Next would be the demolition phase of the job . The tools needed for this would be a Kango drill , a bolster hammer and a brick hammer . After we have knocked through this wall we would then install a rolled steel joist (RSJ) to permantley support the loads above. We could then remove the other structural supports and propping devices and the job would be done .
