How do you remove a load bearing wall?

Support the load whatever it is, roof, second floor, generally by putting a temporary beam under the joist inside of the existing wall, tear the wall out and put in a beam to carry the load. How big the beam needs to be depends on what the load is and how long the span is. Support the beam on each end and remove the temporary beam. These are the general steps, each project is going to be slightly different and has to be figured on it's own.


What is the recommended size and material for the support beam needed to reinforce a load-bearing wall in a residential structure?

The recommended size and material for a support beam to reinforce a load-bearing wall in a residential structure is typically a steel or engineered wood beam that is sized according to the specific load requirements of the wall. It is important to consult with a structural engineer to determine the exact specifications needed for the support beam.


How much weight the steel you beam hold?

The weight a steel I beam can hold depends on its dimensions, material properties, and the way it is supported. Steel beams are typically rated based on their load-bearing capacity in pounds per foot or kilonewtons per meter. To determine the exact weight a specific steel I beam can hold, you would need to consult structural engineering tables or software that consider factors such as the beam's span, section modulus, and moment of inertia.

What size steel eye beam can safely span 14 feet with a point load of 4000 pounds in the middle?

There are a lot of considerations to be taken into account for sizing steel shapes, especially for a residential home. For instance, what are the load imposed upon the beam? How will the beam be supported? What environment will the beam sit in (i.e. high humidity, moisture, vibration)? A licensed professional engineer or architect in your state can better answer this question.
