Typical weight of a Juliet balcony

Question

How heavy is a Juliet balcony made from metal or glass and how do I know if my walls can support one?

Terence · Answer

You will need to contact a structural engineer to calculate the structural integrity of your walls and the weight of the balcony.

Adam · Answer

Juliet balcony is required to withstand in a single family dwelling. Should you require a higher line load test (for instance if your balcony is in an area where people may congregate)

David · Answer

All balcony are different you would need to get a engineering to work this out and to check that the walls can take the load.

Danny · Answer

That would be a job for an engineers report before any work would commence.

Frank · Answer

70 kg per linear meter approximately.
Hope this helps

Norman · Answer

Steel Juliet Balconies are around 50kg per linear metre, it varies depending on height and gauge of steel bar used.

Mark · Answer

If your walls are made of brickwork , then it should be fine. Just drill holes for the fixings and use a chemical resin fix to secure your bolts, trim the excess when dry and fit your balcony. There is very little play in the fixings so you must be accurate with your bolt positioning before they go hard. .
