Fashion Short Layouts
How can i tell if a wall is a load bearing wall in my shed?? :) ?

I have an old fashioned brick shed with a corragated iron roof. I want to remove a wall seperating the two halves of the shed. The best way to describe the layout is a like a cross in the centre of a box. My neighbour owns the right hand side of the cross and i own the left, i want to remove most of the short arm of the cross leaving me with one big room. There are no electrical or plumbing connections in the wall. Does it sound vital to the support of the roof or not????

N.B i cant afford a professional opinion atm.

The question is how is the roof supported. I am going to make a few assumptions and IF THEY ARE ALL TRUE REPEAT ALL TRUE Then you could remove the wall.

1)The entire building is a rectangle with the roof running the long direction.
2)The roof is a gable roof, (peak in the center above the dividing wall – you want to leave and both ends of the long side look like an upside down V and the edge of the roof sits on the long side).
3) the wall you want to take down runs parallel to the rafters or trusses.
4) the wall does not go the the bottom edge of the roof.

There may be many other scenarios where removal of the wall would be OK too, but without seeing at least a few pictures I could not in good conscience tell you to it would be OK to remove the wall.

For example if the garage is very large and you have a hip roof the wall COULD be a support wall. In a normal sized garage this is unlikely, but what is normal?
