[quote=Anonymous]Basements have load bearing components that I don't recommend you modify. Those load bearing components are: columns, beams, foundations walls, foundations and slab. Only if you need more ceiling height, i advise you demo the slab, underpin and pour a new slab. Otherwise, work with an architect to incorporate the load bearing elements into the design. It's much cheaper (and reasonable) that try to replace existing columns and beams in a basement. Check how how I've done it (many many times!) www.ileanaschinder.com[/quote]
