Two questions:
1. The clerestory window is not indicated graphically in the plan and we just need to be aware of its location as specified in the program so we can place a beam below it, right?
2. If the upper roof joists are PARALLEL to the clerestory window, do we need to place a beam above the clerestory window too?
I guess I'm a little confused by this statement on Norman Dorf's book:
"Double check that you remember in which direction the clerestory is facing. Locating it on the wrong wall may be fatal. As the support for the roof decking and the clerestory weight will be required above and below this item".
Thanks!
