I'm building an overhang on the side of my garage - ledger against the wall, 2x4 rafters on a 4-12 pitch about 6 feet from my house (might be 5 I dont remember). With 1/2" plywood and with shingles.This is over a 16 foot span.My question is, is 2 sistered 2x8x16s enough as a beam for this overhang sitting on 2 4x4 posts, each about 2 feet from the ends of the beam.I live in southern canada but there is snow here, this side of my house not so much but there is.I'm just wanting a covered area for bikes and etc.Thanks via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/2UdMZqW
