What is a Roof Beam Calculator?
A roof beam calculator is a tool used to estimate the appropriate size and dimensions of beams needed to support the loads imposed by a roof, including the weight of the roof itself and any additional loads like snow or equipment.
Why use a Roof Beam Calculator?
- Structural Design: Ensures that roof beams are properly sized to support the roof loads.
- Safety: Prevents structural failures and ensures the safety of the building occupants.
- Code Compliance: Helps in meeting local building code requirements for structural elements.
