Mid terrace RSJs

[adampaulcrickmore]

Hi all,

Just after some advice on installing RSJs for my loft conversion. My structural engineer has advised me that I will need 3 RSJs across my roof space for my loft conversion, which is pretty standard for a Victorian mid terrace I believe.
My question is, what is the easiest way to get them installed. My property is a mid terrace, therefore is my only option to crane them in from the front and effectively spin them through 90 degrees to them get them in place, or is there another way?

The beams are in red on the attached image.

Would appreciate any ideas. Thanks in advance.

get your engineer to do a splice detail into sections and carry them up through the house bolt up then when you open roof your ready to crack on

ask your engineer to design them in two halves or even thirds
