I have a new manufactured home (i know i know). It's 30' wide with a 3:12 roof. I want to add a 3:12 pitch covered porch to the front that will extend out at least 10'. Code requires the porch be self supported.
I want the frame to minimize obstruction of the view from the front windows.
And i'm waffling between trusses and a simple purlin type frame. While the post and purlin design would be simple, I'd like to consider some kind of truss.
Any suggestions/links to show a nice low pitch truss?
And lastly, I hope i'm not embarrassing myself here. I'm pretty ignant about this stuff.
