Hi I am slowly trying to convert my loft and have put in the horizontal timbers on every rafter that go over your head and just wondered what anyone thought about removing the horizontal support beams (not the diagonals) that stop you from being able to walk through the middle of the loft.
I understand that the diagonals are supporting the weight but the horizontals just stopping the roof spreading so do you think that my horizontals over head are sufficient enough to take the two support beams out?
Any ideas or thoughts welcome.
