Title of the message:
First Floor Load Bearing Wall

Text of the message:
I have a garage that was constructed using Engineered Roof Trusses.  (I
am in a rural area, no permits, inspectors, house is  25 years old,
house will not be resold it is owned by the family)  The Trusses are W
trusses with a large area in the center web, 12' wide at base by 21
feet long.  We are in desperate need of room so we are converting the
garage into a family room and also adding a new mud/laundry in part of
it.  Orginally I was just going to add a partition wall but after the
discovery of all the space in the attic, have come up with another
solution.  The bottom chord is 2x4 all on 24" centers.  One half of the
web sits on a loadbearing wall below.  The other half is clear span 21
feet.  I am placing the new wall under the other half of the web. Then
will go back and run 12' 2x12 16" oc in between the existing chords to
support the new floor in the attic.  Both ends of the 2x12 will sit on
