We are planning to build an L-shaped two-story addition with 2-car
underground garage that wraps around the corner of the kitchen. It involves
removing two sides of the exterior wall and adding a point load at the corner.
This structural change makes me uncomfortable. I don't know if I am too
conservative or I have a valid concern. Is there a technically-sound approach to
this at a reasonable costs? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
for your help.
