Steels arrived today.

The drawing above shows the position of the steels with double beams used on the exterior walls. Our architect seemed to miss the requirement of 2 beams (B5 and B6), one that supports the joists above and another that supports a wall that goes up to the 2nd floor. Fortunately, the builders identified the issue before removing the walls and after confirming with the structural engineer, the correct steels were ordered.
