These diagrams may also be used to determine roof load width for floor joists supporting load bearing walls and lintels in lower storey load bearing walls.
Rlw is used to calculate the sectional size of some roof members and supporting wall.
Most commonly the roof s internal support structure is composed of a fairly complicated system of structural elements designed to manage the load from the roof.

Roofs with good drainage require a less tightly sealed building envelope.
Roof load width rlw and floor load width flw can be determined from as1684 or from the images below.
Skillion roofs tend to be fairly steeply pitched which allows water to run off more effectively than on flatter roofs.
Let s consider a basic gable wood roof framing design.
A fair estimate for a skillion roof is anywhere from 6000 to 12 000 depending on various factors like the pitch and the materials used to build the roof.
