Re: Small Gable Roof - No ties or ridge beams?

Bob, > Ridge beam, supported by existing structure on one end, spans 10 feet > to simple king post truss at open end. Rafters are supported by beams > at eaves and ridge. That's kind of what I've been thinking, except I want to avoid the horizontal beam of the king post truss. So, I would probably support the ridge beam with a post running all the way to the footing. > For a 10-foot span the beam is probably something > in the 2-2x10 or 4x10 range depending on snow load. I've been using a 30lb sq/ft load rating for the 8'x10' patio roof, which should be about 600 pounds on each side beam, and about 1200 pounds on the ridge beam. The two side beams will have an additional support midspan, but the ridge beam will span the full 10 feet. The tables I have show a 4x6 should work fine for the ridge beam, but I may use a 4x8 for the ridge. > King post truss sits on top corner posts and has knee braces > at top of post |
