At the same time I enjoy reading, and greatly respect posts like Bro. Epleys.
If you have a set of plans for the building you know exactly which walls are load bearing walls, and which walls served a purpose for a time but can be removed during renovation.

We have a pretty good set of plans that tell us which walls are load bearing, the problem is that people fall in love with the decorative walls and don't want the building remodeled.
