Could this beam be sistered to remove this pole?

I'd love to finish this side of the basement but this support really breaks up the room. I know I'd ultimately need a. Engineer but what does this brain trust think of being able to sister those joists to strengthen the horizontal, or is steel needed after a certain length. submitted by /u/Smharman [link] [comments]
