Thanks Dan. Indeed, I wouldn't proceed on such a project without consultation. I'm but a young buck with large ideas.
I understand that full length posts from floor to rafter (or mid span plate) could alleviate some thrusting issues. Clear spans are not a neccessity for the project. By no means is there a plan on paper right now - just gaining opinions. Thanks everyone, by the way, for your 2 cents.
