Hi, I am hoping someone on here can help me out. We are at bricking stage for our new house and have discovered that the timber support beam has a visual crack in it, also this beam has pieces of chip board placed underneath it between beam and top of wall frames. Having no trade background in our immediate circle I was hoping if someone on here could tell me if it was within accepted tolerance or if it needs to be replaced or fixed.
