This bit of logic defeats me - why must it have been a supporting wall
because there is an RSJ there? Where is the RSJ, and where do its ends rest?



The RSJ is about 2 foot down from the cieling height. Above this
there is part of the original dividing brick wall which the RSJ is
supporting. The ends of the RSJ are inserted into the walls either
side which run at 90 degrees to the RSJ/old partition wall
