I am removing an internal wall that runs parallel with the ceiling joists (100x50 @ 3.5m span).
The problem:
This wall supports one end of a binder running mid-span and perpendicular to the ceiling joists - (100x50 @ 6m span).
If I remove this wall how should I support the binder?
Possible solution - add a beam over the 3.6m span to support the binder?
If so - what size beam should I use and how should I connect it at the ends?
Any advise would be helpful.
(It is a purlin style roof structure)
Thanks
Mike
