Our Gable Ramadas use beams that are either double/triple 2x8’s or triple 2x10's depending on the size of the structure. They are designed to provide exceptional support for decades of use. The 18' and larger Gable Ramadas (excluding Rustic Cedar) use triple 2x10 Header Beams rather than 2x8's. These beams also include Corner Braces which add style, but more importantly supply lateral strength to the entire structure.
Standard beams have a clear span of up to 18' that requires only 2 posts, one on each end. An additional post is necessary for every additional span.
