Re: Acceptable Tolerance of Wall Out of Plumb ?
Not sure why but two engineers around here did not see any problem with this one:
1-2 year old house on crawlspace.
Short 2x4 foundation wall between the masonry foundation and floor system leaning about one inch in less than 2 feet. Two story house but only one story at this wall. Floor joists were parallel to this wall. Crappy looking 2x4 braces nailed from the leaning wall to piers that would not hold much.
I did not ask them why it was not a problem now because I already know that it could become a real problem.
