Default math help

24 feet by 30 feet - that isn't small.
Our small 'yard barn' is 12x24 and the 2x4's that the former owner put in
have broken at every knot and hard grain. I'm going in to double width
and triple in most cases - these until I can replace the roof and rafters.

Martin, that is really quite a small span for trusses. It would
be extremely unusual to see anything other than 2x4s.
