Hi All,
Trying to calculate max load that a timber frame could take if lifted, without casuing any major deflection or deformation.
Frame is 8000x4000mm made from 50x150 C24 Joists, properly joined, with 600 centre cross timbers and noggins at 1200 centres. See attached pic.
This is then...
The drawing for the garage is attached below. The door is 2400w x 2000h and requires a timber portal frame to take a lateral load of 10kN (other diagram).
Hi ChorasDen,
Thanks for your reply.
Question is is it possible?
Yes, I mean flitch (should check autocorrect before sending)
We're in Moray, Scotland.
Thanks 👍
Hi all,
I'm trying to design a portal frame out of timber instead of steel. Was originally thinking 203x133UB but can't use all steel due to foundation restrictions. Happy to use glitch beam or similar. Opening is 2400x2000 within a wall 4000x2400.
TIA
Guy
