Thanks for the response. I have a drawing but I don't know what form I can
send it in. I will try to describe: The first floor has one load bearing wall
directly over the beam and this wall has some headers in it . Starting from one
end of this wall, first there is a header that is 5' then a 4x4 post then
another 3'3 header then a 2'4 wall , 3' header , 7' wall ,5' header, 2'6 wall.
The first two headers I described also have walls that run parallel and these
are 3' to either side of the bearing and both run the first 8'. The second floor
has (2) 4' knee walls that run the full 28' and are equally spaced from the
center, 13'x 28' total floor area. The roof consists of 2x4 rafters 10/12 pitch,
the rafters run down to the first floor outside walls. In this area 40PSF
live/10Psf dead --deflection L/360 live L/240 dead duration 1.0. I hope this is
understandable. Thanks again. Bob
