Hello
I am planning to build a garage/workshop with the dimensions 8x10m and an interior wall height of 3.5m.
Since I intend to use the upper floor for storing some car parts and other items, I will have a HEA beam on one side and a load-bearing wall on the other side, 3m in from each side.
My question is whether a 180x180x8000 HEA beam can handle the weight from the upper floor or if I should go up to a 200x200x8000.
Since I live on a road where longer trucks cannot enter, I have to build my roof trusses on-site myself.
The span will be 10m, and I am considering using 45x220 timber for the trusses with a spacing of 1200mm.
The roof pitch should be 30 degrees.
So the question is, is 45x220 sufficient or not?
I tried to get trusses in a kit form, but they couldn't deliver them.
