Hi,
I intend to do a dormer conversion intent to use 202 by 202 46kg per meter. The spans runs for 5.5meters with no spine wall support. i intend to make the floor out of 8by 2 c24. the span to long in length? Do I need to break this span by either creating a spine partion or supporting RSJ? Alternatively break the span of 5.5 m and add another steel and then continue the run from the new steel?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated..I have a height restriction so really don't want to use timbers bigger than 8 inches.
