composite/metal purlins instead of timber ?
I have a shallow pitch roof design that involves 225mm timber purlins
supporting 50mm counter-battens, then battens and interlocking concrete tiles. Span of purlins is 4 metres. (Insulation between purlins based in knauf insulation examples). Then purlins were to be hung from masonry using joist hangers. What could I replace the timber with in order to make the roof thinner ? I have no experience with composite beams etc. Cheers, Simon. |
