I have a glulam beam supporting the lowest part of the roof for a carport today. It has three supports along the way.
I would like to replace it with either an alternative stronger glulam beam or more likely an H beam. This is because I want to remove the middle support as this post is in the way of the car door!
Can someone help me calculate what I should use instead? Today, there is a glulam beam with the dimensions: 5937x225x90
Thank you! 🙏

A constructor is needed for this, you need to know the loads the beam will carry, the snow zone, and how it looks with the roof trusses...
I am not a designer..but it helps you if someone who is can help you..
