Roof Load Bearing Rough Timber

The beam has a clear span of 2 75 m the bearing length has been restricted to 100 mm at each end is of strength class c24 to bs en 338 2003 and functions in service class 2 conditions.

Roof load bearing rough timber.

Individual studs sills and headplates should be 38mm x 75mm minimum although larger sizes may be required to achieve an adequate level of fire resistance. Supporting imposed load for access and repair only. Our engineered timber beams form the framework for very complex timber roof construction. In order to stay intact and in place a roof must be able to resist loads both permanent and temporary that are pushing.

When constructing structural elements. We are focused on eliminating complexity and delivering client satisfaction for every project we do. Ceiling binders and hangers. The amount of weight the internal support structure can carry without the roof collapsing can be described as its load bearing capacity.

At laminated timber solutions we produce and build load bearing timber structures for contractors architects builders and property developers. If you are looking for a reliable and experienced partner in the timber building market then you have come to the right place. Our long standing history of custom beam design manufacture and installation enables us to engage with projects that are usually bigger longer taller than most. Provides support to long span ceiling joists.

Structural design of load bearing timber walls should be in accordance with bs en 1995 1 1. Flat roof joists assumptions at 400mm centers supporting permanent load excluding self weight of joists up to 50kg m2. A 75 mm by 200 mm deep sawn timber beam in a domestic residence supports the characteristic loading shown above. Joist breadth 47mm.

Load limits on the roof of a building. At least 40mm bearing on supports. Provides support to purlins to prevent deflection and to transfer roof loads to the load bearing structure below. Ties the roof together at purlin level.

The load bearing capacity of a roof should be adequate to support not only the roof cladding materials such as tiles or shingles but also objects that sit on top of the roof like antennae satellite dishes air conditioning units solar hot water systems and solar photovoltaic panels. Roofs are under a lot of pressure. Maximum slop3 10 deg.
