Wanting to see if it possible to remove section of internal wall between kitchen and living area. Wall does not appear to be load bearing but has a steel angle (25mmx25mm) brace running diagonally through it. The amount of wall to be removed can be adjusted but mainly just wanting to open up area, so taking out 1800 mm of it would be ideal. Will there be enough full height wall remaining to carry bracing loads? If not, how much of the wall has to stay in order to keep bracing strength?
