I’m finishing a basement and I’d like to see if it’s possible to move the ceiling jack post that holds the beam where the floor joists sit on. I currently have a 12 foot span between the cinder block wall and the ceiling jack that holds the triple up-ed 2×10 beam, and I’d to move the span to 15 feet. I have a cinder block foundation and most of the weight from the house is on that.

I’d be interested in talking to engineer and paying for their service, but I don’t know exactly where to look. I’m hoping to solve this problem online because the house is out of the way. Does anyone know of an online engineer service like that?
