Open-plan domestic living is extremely sought after, in that people nowadays favour larger unrestricted areas in which to live.

Here at AGB Design, we have the inspiration and technical knowledge to converge rooms by removing walls, thus creating that ‘spacious’ feel.

Load bearing walls form the structural integrity of any dwelling, meaning the removal of such a wall will usually require the insertion of steelwork to maintain that integrity.

Our structural engineer can assess, provide an engineers’ report, and size any steelwork necessary to be implemented within such an environment.

All calculations are hand prepared and compliant to BS449 / BS5950-1, and fully checked by the local authorities Building Control department.

The specified steel sections can then be procured and installed with confidence.

Please feel free to call or contact AGB if you require any advice regarding the removal of walls or insertion of steelwork.
