Recent Architectural trends and consumer preferences have seen a shift towards living areas being more open to facilitate social interaction, entertaining, and a more pleasing living space aesthetic.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
As a result, home owners are seeking to open up their homes by removing internal dividing walls.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
This is a highly specialised field, and in recent times some home owners have created great danger in removing walls on mere lay opinions of builders without seeking a professional Engineer’s properly considered advice.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Sydney Engineers consult extensively on wall removal advice by visiting clients who wish to remove a wall or several walls in their home. Quite often clients will be seeking advice as to whether a wall that is being considered for removal is load bearing, and if so whether this will be an impediment to the wall being removed. In most cases, our Engineering team can devise a solution that reallocates loads in a safe and acceptable manner.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
No one rule applies to advice on wall removal, and each case is different.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">

Despite being relatively simple structures, the development and conception of retaining walls prior to construction is not founded in proper Engineering principles set out in the relevant Australian Standard, AS 4678-2002, Earth Retaining Structures.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">All too often attempts to limit costs and to escape council requirements lead to problems later. One need only make casual observations in the surrounding built environment to observe many walls that are bulging, cracking, or leaning.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">The causes of these problems are numerous and can include:</div><ul style="margin-left: 10px; padding-left: 0px; text-align: justify;"><li style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: url(http://www.sydneyengineers.com/templates/rt_novus_j15/images/bullet-2.png); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 6px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 0px; padding-left: 10px;">Poor site assessment</li>
