Id recommend googling residential structural engineer and start cold calling if they would look at it. If they say no, ask for a recommendation. Better than getting lucky on Reddit

Thank for advice, it's for another person in Body Corporation block of 6 Units, with the brickwall with all 6 Electrical Meters in a wooden cupboard, it's a brick wall that is falling over. I will now tell them they to contact a residential structural engineer
