  • What could go wrong?

    When we had our rsj put in, building control specifically checked that it was sat on padstones. They were in an out in about ten seconds, but that was one thing they did check.

  • I asked about regs/sign off and the builder said it wasn't needed as no footings were being dug and the footprint of the house wasn't changing. Thanks for mentioning, I'll do some searching if that's true.

  • In your situation I would speak to a structural engineer before any builders.

    At the end of the day the specifying of any steels should be done by an engineer and will be covered by their professional indemnity insurance.
