I have an interior wall that I've reinforced with a beam and pillar. To the right of the beam is a short brick wall with plaster (150mm thick), a pillar and beam (115mm thick), and to the left, a framed wall structure (120mm). I want to encase the beam and make it a flush wall, but my concern is all the different dimensions.
How would you solve this most easily? Add cross laths on the glulam to align with the framed wall? Difficulties transitioning from wood to brick without adding laths on the brick... but then it builds out too much.
