House Construction: girder telepost support


Question Posted Tuesday March 9 2010, 7:08 pm

Girder under first floor is 6x12 inches (4planks) and 46 ft long, supported by 5 standard teleposts (jacks), rated at 8,000 lbs loading, spaced a little over 7 ft apart. Girder ends sit on concrete foundation wall. At one end there are 20 foot clear-span beams under the second story floor and under the roof. Consequently, telepost #3 in the basement is also supporting half the load of the 20 ft beams. What should be the ball-park capacity of this third telepost: at least 16,000 lbs rating?
