I am going to build a smaller building of about 15 sqm + a deck.
I have laid the foundation with 145 x 45 on CC 60 and two bearer beams 45 x 195...
I placed the bearer beams at 1.60 + 3.20.
The dimensions are 4.30 x 3.60 (where it extends 3.60 is planned for a smaller deck that will be 1.20 x 4.30),
so the total dimensions with the deck are 4.80 x 4.30.
Everything will be insulated in step 2.
I am considering a lean-to roof with an 11-degree slope, and for the roof beams, I am thinking of 195 x 45 with 60 CC
which will rest on the back wall and then on the front wall, the slope is adjusted with the heights of the walls,
so it is 3.60 that the roof beams must handle...
I am considering possibly using 45 x 95 as the stud frame in the walls, though it feels a bit weak where the roof beams will rest.
I have understood that the roof beam should rest on an upright stud; is it possible to avoid this at the front side with, for example, a bearer beam since the door and several windows will be there?
Does one usually notch out the roof beams at their attachment to the stud frame?
Regards, Stefan
