Will help with setting up a simple screen roof and have the measurement after the plastic roof which is 4000x1115 mm.
What do you say about the dimension especially of the roof beam, is 45 x 170 sufficient?
Or maybe we can go down to 145 mm..
There will be a support in the middle as drawn with either one post per beam or as in the front with a joist underneath..

At the back, the roof beams are attached to the wall with joist hangers.
Snow load zone 2.5 - 3.0

Hand-drawn sketch of a simple lean-to roof structure with dimensions, showing beams and supports for a DIY project in a snow zone of 2.5-3.0.
 
After consulting Svenskt Trä again, the decision was made to use 145 x 45 both as top plate and roof beam, with an estimated deflection of under 3 mm, it should hold even for a few decimeters of wet snow ....
