Hi
For a loft conversion with a dormer I'm contemplating to start soon, wondering if the following would be possible.
I will need to install two RSJ'S, one in the front just above the existing joist and one rear and one at the ridge.
They span approximately 6.5 meters in the length and will sit from the party wall to the gable end.
The question I have is, would it be possible to have these rjs's in two pieces and have them either spliced or welded together?
I want to install the RSJ'S before opening up the roof.
Please advise
