Structural Design for Vaulted Rafters in timber structures at Georgia
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
I'm looking for a structural engineer to assist with the planning and design of vaulted rafters for a residential space.
The project involves:
- Removing the wall between the living room and dining/kitchen room.
- Raising the ceiling as high as possible.
Existing conditions:
- The roof has a 4:12 pitch.
- The current ceiling is made of wood.
The primary goal of this project is to improve ventilation in the space.
Ideal candidates will have experience with residential structural design, particularly with vaulted ceilings and rafters. Familiarity with wood construction is essential, and experience designing for ventilation improvement is a plus. Please note that I've included some drawings for reference.
The structure is 2x4 walls with brick outside. So the wall ends up being like 8in thick. The ceiling and roof is all 2x6
