Roof framing ideas 1

[JStructsteel]

Got a house with a room in the attic, and the owner wants a full height roof projection. Based on the framing, I was looking at having to do a ridge beam, and rafters. I was thinking that a girder truss each side could be designed for the ridge beam loading. At the other end, the floor joists would have to take the load. Anyone have any other ideas?

Update from the Truss guy, they can get a 5ply girder truss to work for these supports. Sort of framed similar to KootK last layout. Thanks for all your help.

Thanks for following up on this. Often we're left guessing to what ended up happening.

Glad you are able to get it to work.

Ditto, the report back is great, particularly on a near run thing like this.
