[euroliner]

putting up a machinery house 60 x 100 x 20 foot to the eaves sheltered within a 12 foot bank open at the front for now , may put roller shutter doors on through time , what size of steel without going mental

Yea was thinking 10 X 6 , but what weight of beam

Don’t think you’ll get anything CE marked 60 wide on 10*6 though. This is a grainstore example and no idea on the company but they’re using much heavier columns and rafters.

Pardon our interruption...

Not many would want a grain store with 2m walls and the gable posts are far to small and questionable on the side braces

You could have a design done for less than £150 site specific to your postcode and use

We have had calcs done before that look well overdone on steel sizes this can often be reduced by using bigger holding down bolts or bigger bolts in eaves connection or a keyed base or all 3

Aye we’re using 14 inch legs 12 inch rafters by using longer haunches and bolts.

Are you in Scotland?

 

[euroliner]

What about wind?
Scotland or England ?
Or somewhere else?

 

[BobGreen]

Too many variables. All our buildings are postcode designed. Location and design can alter steel sizes from 30kg/m to 50 kg/ m giving a difference in cost
