Finally, a simple, short and clear explanation. Thanks you!
YES!
I'm a visual and auditory learner and this was the most concise, clearest explanation I've found.
Keep doing these please!
Explained it better than anything else I found, and in less time too. Thanks!
Short, clear, easy to understand, thanks a lot for keeping it simple 😁
absolutely hands down best explanation with graphics explaining a bearing wall
thank you guys preciate it
Can't believe I just watched a video about load bearing walls. More surprising is that I'm considering sharing it. It was just a really, really well-made video. Good job!
UA-cam is amazing. I've learned something I've always wondered in under 2mins. Thank you
Wish I would have found this video before the one I just watched, would have saved myself six minutes.
Excellent video.
Sure had fun making this video for you guys! Y'all are the ROCKSTARS of the Load Bearing Wall world!
best explanation on the internet
Wow. Short to the point LOADED with good info. Thank you.
I've been drafting for years and i congratulate you on the visual clarity & simple instructions for this video. Straight to the point...
Im gonna go climb up in my attic now, thanks so much 😂
Seldom do I find exactly what I'm after on youtube. Fantastic video. Off to my attic I go, this time armed with slightly more dangerous knowledge. :) I have a small addition off the side of my house and some walls need to go.
Was watching a wall tearing down video and got me confused to the comments if load bearing walls...
We have stone build houses in my state. So never saw the inside of walls in a wood house to understand this thing. Who knows, maybe I'd tear down major support and that got me to your video.
Thanks for the clearly quick explained concept of wall bearing.
Excellent clear video, subscribing immediately.
Very informative! Quick and simple....thanks!
perfectly explained what i was looking for, great video for novices
Great video........... I wish all videos were this direct
this helped me understand a topic in my degree, thanks
Great video. Now I can keep going with my assignment. Cheers mate!
Glad you liked it!
great job on this video,, explains everything so simple,, once again,, great job.
Thanks for putting this up. As others have said, it's nice to find a short, informative video instead of having to watch 8 minutes of pointless fluff from someone trying to be an HGTV host.
Best shortest video I ever seen
Lol! "Proud owner of a load bearing wall" indeed. Where do we claim our prizes? Simple and effective explanation. Thanks a lot.
This video is excellent in explaining a load bearing wall
That was an easy explanation! Thanks
Wish I seen this yesterday. Now I have to rebuild my whole house
So Wonderful! Thank you!!!
Very simple thanks
This is easy to understand!
Well explained.
I actually felt great finally knowing how to identify a load bearing wall but that ending just made me feel so stupid. Thanks guys!
this is a superb vid man ... welll done
thanks so much!
Very useful!
Great video!
Yes that true but it hard in practice some times since its not always easy to see the terminating ends of joists or rafter bracings
Similar to the video, the owners are upfront and honest. If you are in the DFW area in Texas you're in luck!
what if i dnt have a attic tho? i have a single wide trailer having hard time figuring if my wall has a nom bearing or so
Best video I've seenn.
Thank you
Does it make a difference if you have trusses
For anyone that needs an even shorter explanation. 1:15 is all you need
Still have to be careful with interior walls that r non bearing because their
support for exterior
walls on the premiter
of the house
but also you could use a steel wire
from exterior wall
hooked up to another
interior wall, this would still give support for the exterior wall
I have a question. I am new to all this but I’m trying to learn. I have vaulted ceilings. There is a partial wall that separates my kitchen and my living room. The wall doesn’t reach all the way to the ceiling, but there is a beam attached to the wall that does reach the ceiling. I wanted to remove that wall including the beam. How can I tell if that beam is load bearing? Because of the vaulted ceiling, it’s hard to crawl up in the attic to that area.
Kate R remove the wall and if the house begins to make funny noises and starts to sag then u will know.
Ok what if my ceiling joists are not spliced over a wall. And I’ve got 2 purlin braces sitting on a flat 2x4 that’s stretched on top and across the ceiling joists maybe a foot from the wall I want to remove. Am I ok or is the wall indirectly helping to support the purlin braces
Oh and ceiling joists are 2x6 20” on center. Span table says 12’10” and room measures 12’. Thanks for any help given you tubers!
Proud owner of a bearing wall !!! Yeaaaaaaaa.
Not something to be proud of cause if you need to knock sown a wall you need to put a beam to support it. My house has no load barring walls therefore i could knock anything down with no issue
But how do I know if that’s the case
👍👍
HooooLeeeey Fffffff. Explained it all!
Hello, what about walls parallel to a ceiling joist. Can they be load bearing too?
Walls with parallel ceiling joist on both sides can still be load bearing if the purlin braces land on them. If no bracing lands on them, then most likely not load bearing
Jason Hulcy
Great thanks, I assume that if a purlin brace is used then this would be a point load where it lands on the wall top plate, and thus as long as this is maintained through a stud to the floor then portions of the wall either side of this stud could be removed?
Either that or relocate the brace to another location.
Ha of course, never thought of that, so much for thinking I was capable of lateral thought! Thanks for your replies. Cheers
allanpennington I
they use 2call me load bearing bak n tha day....cuz man...i could load 9n some weights....
Wished i had watched this videp before i tore down my wall....my ceiling is now sagging...i sure in some shit now.....
jimmy same here so ur not alone.
Hey Jimmy, just wondering how you were able to fix your ceiling?
😎
Well, that’s how to identify only ONE of MANY load-bearing-wall scenarios. This fact should have been included here.
ok diagram--but last time i looked my house was not made from diagrams--idea--maybe we should show a real house?
I don't know who invented load bearing walls.. they are so stupid. Why don't they just make them all non load bearing so you can remove and reconfigure them as needed?
