You need to hire a structural engineer. Some sites with a few documents and formulas aren't the place to learn how to design a mezzanine when there are lives at stake.

I agree with swearington, you need a certified, qualified, licensed or whatever engineer. I think it great you are working hard to understand the requirements. However, even if you already know how to determine the right size beam, you would want a qualified engineer to review your analysis. You don't want to make a mistake that could cause loss of life or property. Modified by Kelly_Bramble at Thu, Jun 29, 2006, 07:59:54
