Marriage wall removal

Kemble9 | Posted in Construction Techniques on

Looking to have someone remove this wall in my modular home. I wanted to know if this would be possible with a microlam beam. House was built in 1990. This is on the first floor of the 2 story home. Looking to open up my living space a little more.

    Hire a structural engineer to come in and properly size the necessary beam. There is too much unknown for anyone on this forum to answer this.
