Hi Guys,
First post in this very helpful forum - hoping to be able to gather some useful knowledge and opinions.
My home built in circa 1969 has a concrete slab which extends out to a balcony. Purchased 2 years ago, I recently discovered that the posts that appears to be supporting the balcony are all mostly rusted through.
I am wondering if I need to be concerned - whether or not the posts were load bearing to begin with and should therefore be replaced or could be removed altogether. They don't seem to be wide enough to really be supporting any weight. The balcony has also not dropped one bit...
I have attached some images and original plans and would really appreciate thoughts - not to be relied on at all obviously and just your opinion.
Thank you in advance.
