What happens here
To address the identified structural issues and integrate the staircase, new support framing is constructed. This involves installing additional vertical posts and horizontal beams to support the sagging floor joists and to frame out the stair opening on the upper level. The purple wall is removed, and a new wall is framed in its place, providing proper head clearance and a finished look to the stairwell entrance upstairs. The new supports are securely attached to the existing structure, reinforcing the overall integrity of the barn.
Goal: Reinforce the barn structure and finish the stairwell opening upstairs.
