Hi folks
I want to put a big timber car port up and everyone I talk to say it's not possible. I don't understand the major issue.
The span is approx 24ft wide by just over a car length, probably about 10-12ft.
I would like to do it if possible with four corner posts of probably 100mm sqaure section with maybe 4x2 for the upper frame and a 3 sided 4x2 lower frame for stability. I was then planning to drop in 3x2 struts on which to mount the lightweight corrugated plastic roof.
The 25ft span needs to be without a middle post at the front edge due to turning circles etc. There is an option though to put in a middle post at the back and possibly a middle post to form a cantilever for the roof.
Please tell me if this is possible.
