Default Reposition and adding new support poles


"kcanderson" wrote in message
I currently have a 40 foot steel I beam being supported by a poured
concrete foundation and 3 support poles to support the first floor of
my home. One support pole is in an undesirable location for the
designed floor plan.


If done correctly will this repositioned and additional pole
configuration cause any problems or harm to my home. What else should
I beware of in considering this solution?


You need an engineer to answer that. He must know the beam size and the
load it is supporting. You don't give any of that information so anyone
here would just be guessing.
