Shed roof for extension (summer room/porch approach - "open roof", skylight)
- Width 3m x Length 6m
- Slope 13 degrees
- Snow load class 1.5
- 0.55 kN/m2 - Felt roof (initially without insulation, may be insulated later)
Have come to these options and would prefer 1200 cc
CC 1200 mm (desirable)
> Glulam 90×180 GL30c, deflection 11 mm (L/269)*, utilization rate 66%
> Glulam 115×180 GL30c, deflection 9 mm (L/344), utilization rate 52%
CC 600 mm (okay..)
> Structural timber 45×195 C24, deflection 10 mm (L/286)*, utilization rate 81%
Seems reasonable, and I assume that 115×180 GL30c is the choice

I don't quite understand how you calculated it? What will be the span of the beams, 3 or 6 meters?
Sorry - > 3m span as the central measure, the room is 6m long (beams at 1200 cc)

I wonder if you have calculated correctly? You have very high deformations in relation to dimensions and span.
Thank you, which dimensions of glulam are "easy" to acquire?
Alternatively, should I go for 45×195 C24 and 600 cc instead, easy to acquire...

Look through the assortments but I was also considering using 90x180, but realized it would need to be ordered. Maybe not a big price difference, I don't know.
90x225 and 56x225 are easier, available at Beijer, Bauhaus, and Byggmax.

Do you mean on the outer wall? Thinking of a load-bearing outer wall (600 cc) that can be insulated in the long run and beams up on the facade
