Hey guys,
I am doing a single story extension with a flat roof. I have the Steel beam above the opening for the bifold doors (2.8m steel with 2.4m opening)
The timber joists for the floor are let into the wall either side back and front and then i am going to joist hang the and timber the length of the extension
I am going to bolt into the steel also for extra security however my question is: when bolting into the steel do i need to run a timber along the whole steel or can i just cut some uprights and bolt through that? Same with the wall on the other side is it okay to step it away from the wall?
Finding it hard to type what i mean so i have added some pictures
Thanks for all your help in advance
