Just wondering if anybody can tell me if the purlin is being supported by the vertical wooden strut to the right of the picture? Does the hip rafter keep the purlin in place if this strut is removed?
There is a brick bedroom wall below this wooden strut, but the wall does not provide support to the ceiling joists. I want to remove the bedroom wall, and despite 2 people telling me they "think" it is safe to remove this wooden strut, i am still having my doubts.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
