Structural engineering design for a large swing set attached to brick wall
$250-750 AUD
Paid on delivery
My daughter is autistic and uses swinging for therapy. She is outgrowing the kids swing set. I would like to install a beam over my driveway to attach swings to, allowing space to drive a car and trailer underneath to access the garage.
The driveway is 5.5m wide and runs along side a double brick wall. I would like to be able to use most of this width to manoeuver the trailer alongside the car. To make the best use of space, the beam could be supported by the brick wall at one end. The other end would need to be supported by one or two angled uprights secured to the concrete diveway or a small concrete footing close to the fence. The driveway slopes about 3° down towards the street.
The beam would be 2.5-3m high and allow for 2 people up to 80kg to swing simultaneously.
I am capable of completing small building projects myself but I need help to come up with a design that is safe and not too expensive. I may need to source a metal worker or other trades. I'm open to alternative suggestions if you have a better idea.
