50kg mounted high up can create a substantial load.......

On a wall like a gable end? Which has racking strength from the roof
timbers too? Please.

That depends on the timber structure and which way the members go.

You don't know anything about construction.

OK, Mr Cleverclogs,

So explain what happens when the roof structure is of trussed rafters
with ties and there are not substantive purlins using the gable end
walls.....

Is the gable end wall then as load bearing or needing to be as strong?

As I said "You don't know anything about construction"


I was asking you to explain something, so if this is your best offer
of a reply, I guess that I can draw my own conclusions about your
knowledge of the subject.
