I got a question regarding a load bearing wall, hopefully somebody can help me.
I’m changing the location of my upstairs bathroom, I have to move the 3″ drain pipe. The wall were I have to hide the pipe is 8 1/2″ finished thickness and load bearing.I have to run aprox. 5 feet horizontal in this wall before I can drop it to the vertical straigt down in the waste pipe. What is the best way to frame this wall so I can put the 3″ pipe inside it?
