The reason for this is that exterior walls sit on the foundation walls and carry the load of upper levels, ceilings and roofs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">In addition to exterior walls acting as load bearing walls there are also many cases where interior walls are load bearing.
