| Residential Addition
Project Description: |
 |
| The original structure was a 2 bedroom 1 bath
house that was 862 square feet. The addition proposed adding
an extra 800 square feet, and included the addition of a master
bedroom and bathroom, a formal dining room, a children's playroom,
a hallway with linen storage, and increaseing the size of the
front room and kitchen. In order to achieve these desired results,
it was necessary to remove 2 bearing walls. |
Solution: |
 |
| In order to support the roof structure with the
removal of the 2 bearing walls, 2 girder trusses were necessary.
One of the girder trusses also supported the roofing structure
of 400 square feet of the new addition. In addition, the front
trusses was designed to create a seamless connection between
the old and new structures. In total, 6 different truss designs
were created to complete the project. |
