Load bearing wall
I am doing my basement and wanted to take out a wall near the
staircase. What concerns me is that at the end of the staircase there are 2 2x4's that have a big yellow coloured 2x10 resting on it at the top. Now this 2x10 is being held up by a steel floor joist support, but what I was wondering if is that the 2 2x4's area load bearing wall? Someone from Home Depot was telling me that there is no such thing as a load bearing wall in the basement and that I can definitely take it out. Can anyone else provide input ? The house is brand new, 1 year old, and built in Ottawa, Ontario Thanks. |
