@Collins1507.

Please do not do anything with this fraudster called hsl-broker. Don't fall for his write ups. I did and have regretted. I paid him 3m to supply roofing materials and ceilings for my projects, but he took my money and ran away. Finally I got him arrested. The case is in the court now.
If you think, see the attached screenshot.

I have sorted and settle this.

Since last year

Thank you sir.

You see, life is not balance, it is when you are in challenges that you will see this world, especially when you sick about to die, you will know the true frienda.

We are like a lab rat, running a rat race, i said this because I was seen other side of life, when you see death coming, hope you know what I mean? then I realise that we nothing but dust, either poor or rich, big or small, beautiful of ugly, powerful or powerless, intelligent or dullard, connected or not-connected, holy or unholy, righteous or unrighteous, faithful or not faithful, at the end of all your effort, this memories will be erase, you won't remember anything, not your wife, or your children, not your family or your friends, not your money or your debts, at the end you will give up everything unto death.

Then? what is the purpose of life?

In my journey so far, I came to understand and agree that life it selve was created out of love.

To love one another unconditionally, to do good to one another, to respect each other, to encourage each other, to build each other, I believe, if we do all of this, in his loving kindness and tender mercy he used in creating us, we shall have peace in this world and here after.


This is one of the good have done here and there are hundreds of people that benefitted, I have satisfy many people here, though you can't please everyone, some circumstances and unwarranted or wanted events do occur, but as long as you live, let it be your priority to do good, at all time, be at peace with all men.

BECAUSE all our rat race, mo fe dogun, mo fe do gbon, ojo kan mo ma dopin.

May the peace of the Lord continue to be with us in Jesus name (Amen )

Once again, it had been sorted sir.

A home is gotten when you look for comfort based on your fantasy, but a shelter is a necessity, and a building becomes a shelter when it can prevent rain,water,sun, strong wind and other climatic elements from affecting the occupants- human,animal, living and dead loads with personal effects.

As far as I am concerned the moment you have your roof placed on a building, other things are important but they are basically needs. You can’t move into a house without a roof , but we have seen people living in a house with no window or makeshifts windows covered with ordinary bags and cardboards.

So it is very important to calculate the dimension of the true length of a roof members. These dimensions are essential to determine the accurate span of Rafter, Wall plate, Tie beam, King Post, Overhang, Purlins, fan struts etc.

Residential timber-framing construction clearly differentiate between spacing and span Spacing the centre-to-centre distance between structural members, unless otherwise indicated.

Span the face-to-face distance between points capable of giving full support to structural members or assemblies. In particular, rafter spans are measured as the distance between points of support along the length of the rafter and not as the horizontal projection of this distance.

Single span the span of a member supported at or near both ends with no intermediate supports.

Continuous span the term applied to members supported at or near both ends and at one or more intermediate points such that no span is greater than twice another.

Span/length calculation for roof members.

As can be seen the span of the rafter in the figure below is not quite in agreement with the Code but we will use the figures for the rafter span as calculated below.

Wood/ timber are sawn into various sizes amongst are

2” by 2” i.e 50mm by 50mm

2” by 3” i.e 50mm by 75mm

2” by 4” i.e 50mm by 100mm

2” by 6” i.e 50mm by 150mm

3” by 4” i.e 75mm by 100mm

3” by 6” i.e 75mm by 150mm
Re: How To Calculate Hardwood Needed For Your House Roofing by hslbroker2(m): 11:31am On Oct 30, 2021
From the picture above you can see the height of the roof of building and the length and breadth of building is already shown in the floor plan, so left to be known is the rafter or the fall ‘x’ as shown in diagram above.

Remember the Pythagoras theorem in secondary school days used in calculating the longest part of a right angle triangle.

The numbers of wood to be calculated also depends on spacing for the purpose of this exercise, we are using the format in diagram above as our specifications for our calculations.

For ceiling noggins of 600mm centers it simply means the wood are nailed 600mm apart, so add the breadth of plan and 600mm as overhangs both sides i.e 7,800mm or 7.8m +1200mm or 1-2m=9meters

Then divide by 0.6m=15pcs of 16.975m of 50 by 50.

For the longitudinal portion, 16.975+1.2m(the overhangs of 0.6m both sides)=18.175m then divide by 0.6=31 pcs of 9m of 2” by 2” ( Note how the length on one side is used to calculate the pieces/numbers of wood required for the length of the other side)

So to know the number of 2 by 2 to buy in the market for the ceiling noggins-

18.175m x 15pcs=273m of 2” by 2”

9m x 31pcs=279m of 2” by 2”

Total=552m

In the market, the wood comes in 3.6m per piece

So 552/3.6=153 pcs of 2” by 2” timber to buy in the market for ceiling noggins.

WALL PLATE is the timber/wood that are placed on top of blocks or roof beams as the case may apply, so for the fastest way to calculate this, is to add the entire walls length and divide by 3.6m to know the numbers of pieces you need. I am using approximately 100m.

So for 100m, divide by 3.6=28pcs of 3” by 4” or 75mm by 100mm to purchase in the market for timber named wall plate.

For FACIAL BOARD, remember the length and breadth of the plan of the building with its overhangs of 0.6m each, so add the perimeter

9m+9m+18.175m+18.175m=54m

Divide 54m by 3.6m=15pcs of 1” by 12”

For TIE BEAM, going by the section, it was recommended that we lay the timber named tie beam which is 2” by 6” or 100mm by 150mm at 1.2m centers apart. So what we need to do is to follow the same format used in calculating the ceiling noggins but it is going to span only the breadth of 7.8m only.

So divide 18.175m by 1.2m centers (spacing)

=15pcs of 7.8m =117m, then divide by 3.6m to know the numbers to buy/purchase in market.

117/3.6=32pcs of 2 by 6 of wood termed as tie beam to buy in the market.

STRUTS are a bit complex to calculate, they are the members placed diagonally as shown in diagram to connect the rafter with tie beams. We can use the numbers of tie beams and multiply by 2-

i.e 32 pcs multiply by 2=64 pcs of 3 by 4 or 75mm by 100mm termed as struts to be bought in the market.

For RAFTER, check the height of roof and the breadth of plan to determine the rafter which is the falling portion of the roof (except is already given from the section)

Lets take the height of the roof as 3.5m and the breadth of plan plus overhang is 9m.
