This is the sixth video in the series on the Timber Framing Code. This video looks at Roof Load Width (RLW). RLW is used to calculate the sectional size of some roof members and supporting wall members.

haha! I totally had a brain fart. All this is new to me..so I was watching the skillion part..and in other videos you talked about half span which some people write 1/2 Span in their videos..so when I got to the skillion part, I read it as (Span 1/2) like "Span half" thinking you meant half span..but you meant Span 1 (span one) / (divided by) 2. haha! whoops.
great video mate .. I was wondering are there any video or books that will teach how to read span tables
Hi innocentshoujo
Have a look at around the 2:50 mark

what if the building has a flat roof, how do you calculate the RLW of a flat roof?
If you were designing a lintel where those jack trusses rest at 48, what's the Rlw in that case?
Could you make one massive video on how to put up a frame from start to finish?
