A couple of years ago we had a wall knocked through in our terraced house and an RSJ put in.
About a year later, we found out that we should have had it inspected to make sure it complied with regs. Hmm. I put it down to experience (and maybe getting it inspected prior to selling the house - what a pain!)
About six months ago, I noticed some small vertical cracks had appeared in the plaster underneath one of the walls to the side of the RSJ, and some other (small) ones in the walls above.
Is some natural settling to be expected, or is this is a sign that we need to get things inspected before the whole place falls down?
