Im sure you made drawings, had an engineer stamp the drawings, and submitted them to the local building department for approval. And of course, you nailed it off, not relying on brittle screws? And arent hold downs required on the King studs or is that only when you get a permit, which you did not obtain.
Question for the structural engineers in the crowd: 5 or 6 wall studs in 16″ centers were removed for the opening. The load being carried by those studs is now being carried by the 2 jack studs supporting the header. IF it was me I would have sistered 2 2×4 jack studs on each side to carry the load. Overkill on my part? Also, the 1/2″ plywood filler between the 2 2×12 header is going to stiffen it? Really? Looked like Doug Fir to me and even if it wasn’t 2 x12s are pretty darn stiff.
Kind of off topic for this article but our house is very similar this this one. We opened up the wall between our kitchen and living room and put in LVL beams to carry the load. Now we want to close off the doorway in the kitchen that leads to the old entry to the living room and hallway. This will give us more wall space for cabinets when we redo our kitchen. My question is, when closing off an old interior doorway do I need to remove the hardwood flooring under the doorway before putting the bottom plate in? TIA!
