[quote][i]Originally posted by RichR[/i] I've done the structural calcs; it used to be a supporting beam which spanned the house supporting the floor joists; we've now built a block wall below it which the joists and beam rest on. Essentially the beam is doing nothing now as the block wall is supporting the joists. I intend to make the cut at the mid depth of the shortest span between joists thus allowing the hole to sit where it is least susceptible to compressive or tensile loads. The whole beam is fully built in anyway so there should be very little loading. Its only carrying the joists and not directly carrying a wall above. The beam is 12" deep and the hole is 1.25" [/quote]
