    You need an engineer Im afraid to assess the whole situation. Im not being pushy here but this really isnt a "repair by internet" forum. When it comes to structural issues get the professional out to the problem.

    Just a word of caution to any members posting on this or other similar topics - remember that this forum is for discussing and debating topics and not for offering solutions to structural problems in particular. Advice, of, course may be given on a wide variety of topics but Im drawing the line at structural repair work. Any advice offered by members here is in no way to be taken as being the correct approach or solution to any problem.

    Act on any advice given at your own risk.
