Good morning everyone,
slowly I am finding time to start tackling the garage planning.
I want to build a double garage with a storage room entirely out of wood. About 9m wide and 6m long.
The whole thing should be equipped with a 5m wide sectional door. The door opening should be at least 1.9m high. The roof should have a shed roof suitable for the house, sloping upwards to the back, with a minimum inclination of 15° if possible.
Before comments like "Ask a structural engineer" come in, I first want to know if this is even feasible. The critical point is the front height so that I do not violate the 3m middle height to the neighbor concerning boundary construction.
Only if feasibility is given would I go to a structural engineer. Otherwise, I would have to choose a flat roof.
That means what load must the upper beam above the sectional door bear and how do I calculate it so that the whole thing does not become too tall? I could also imagine a double T-beam there.
Best regards
Tobi
