What to do about that funny beam

About the only suprise we found during the demo had to do with how the roof is supported on the west side. The roof seems to be supported by a beam that transfered the weight of the roof to a header above a window. The weight was then transfered to either side of the window and down to the floor. With the help of a temporary beam (two 2x6) the window opening was converted to the right size for a new five foot sliding door.



While I worked on framing in the new door opening Bryan hung the old kitchen cabinets in the garage. Bryan came up with a great layout and reorganized much of the garage in the process. Thanks for your help Bryan!


Beer-thirty!
