Core drilling under basement door
Hello ! I need to insert a pipe through my foundation wall for drainage. I will be using a core drill about 3.5 inch wide for the hole. However the hole would be around 10 inches under the door leading to my basement. Im concerned this might affect the structural integrity of my wall or the door frame since its a vertical load. Am i being paranoid ? For context, this is a 60's house and the walls are prett thick ( 10 inches). Thank you ! submitted by /u/Fluffy_Acanthisitta9 [link] [comments]
