    Temporarily removing radiator and still using CH...

    Dormer Extension Structural Advice

    Looking for some advice on structural calculations/loadings for a domestic roof. I've done some basic plan drawings for a friend who is extending the existing loft space in his house to include a small gable dormer to the front and a box dormer to the back. He's had planning permission granted...
