Hello,

My early 60s house has a hipped roof where the four purlins sit on five brick supports. Two of these look wonky, which is a little concerning. I show the two wonky ones and one that looks fine for comparison. Is this something to be concerned about and should I have them re-built? If so, how do you do it without there being a collapse?

Many thanks

Not as wonky as my neck attempting to look at those photos.

If only there was a thing where you could rotate photos before saving them...?
Bah humbug.

Get yourself on an anger management and micro aggression course in the new year. :sneaky:
 
They are the right way up on my phone but then ended up sideways when I uploaded them here with no function to rotate. My apologies, and thanks for the replies :)
