Beams

In late November and early December work was done to improve the structural stability of the house.  New   metal beams were put in place in the basement to sure up the floor.  A metal I beam was also installed to carry the weight of the house down through the basement.  Preparations were also made for the installation of a large fabricated steal beam upstairs.  All this stability was making way for some serious construction!
