What ya'all think about that ????

Load bearing walls on 16" and non load on 24". So if you are looking at the front of the building and your highest peaks are front and back - then those sides can be 24" oc if you want.

We need to talk tomorrow - Thought I had your number here - PM it to me and a good time to call.

Snow load of 32 does make a difference:

Southeren Pine 2x6 with 24" oc and a snow load of 32 psf = 9-6" max span.
Southeren Pine 2x6 with 16" oc and a snow load of 32 psf = 10-11" max span.
Southeren Pine 2x8 with 24" oc and a snow load of 32 psf = 12-7" max span.

Remember though that these are clear spans. Framing makes a difference. I'll call ya early afternoon my time and we'll talk about your design/needs.

Later,

Ron

You have no idea, I had a great phone conversation with Ron today,
He's providing me with all kinds of Expert information ...
And damn was it ever nice to just chew the fat with a long time Brother.
Living out here where I do I never get to meet any of you,
That phone call with Ron was just awesome ... Makes it all real.
This place really does amaze me sometimes

Yeah but next time can you make your voice sound more like Sam Elliott - that way it matches your image -

It was great talking with you Jeff. I'll have the drawings finished up later tonight and get them over to you.
