Anyone ever create an opening in a balloon framed wall? This is on the first floor of an exterior wall, 3 story home.
I am concerned about the means and methods of demo as an architect. I do have a struct. engineer on the job.
I am thinking to cinch ea stud with (2)C3x6 and (4)1/2" bolts @ 5"...
How do I use my perc test data? I understand the "pond outlet device" and "discarded" Can I use ft3/ft2? for soil percolation rate?
I am designing a drywell system for a residence. I am an architect so not my main line.
Thanks
Dave

I came up with 785 lbs per rafter for the thrust. please correct me if wrong. Need some strap etc for this, do not want to rely soley on the plate on the floor.
