Operations Management Assignment | Top Essay Writing

Amy and Carrie own adjoining lots. They plan to build identical buildings on the lot and, in order to save space and money, enter into a written agreement whereby they agree to construct a common wall between the two buildings. The buildings and the wall are later built. Assume that the wall is four feet thick, straddles the lot line and provides support for the floors and the roof of each building.

Amy now wants to destroy her building, including her half of the party wall. She seems to remember something about lateral support and other problems from a real estate law class she once took and thinks legal problems might arise if she destroys her half of the wall.
