The ceiling in our dining room is still torn apart from when we installed the new structural beam.
Last week we fabricated a steel bracket to join the original beam to the new beam. the bracket is made of welded steel plate, and held in place with lag bolts. This allowed us to eliminate the jacking post that was previously supporting the beam.
With all of the temporary bracing out of the way, we are nearly ready to put up the sheetrock ceiling in the dining room. Before we do, we're going to do some more work on the heating system piping to the upper floors.
Photos to come later.......
