GET OUT DAT HOUSE!

I don't see any real damage, other than bowing it seems, just install some proper bracing.

What happened that caused you to crawl under there and inspect them? That's what we need to know. Some things look really, "odd" lol

This an attic?

>>959890
good question.
not a related reason
its in the roof
i heard something about 2 weeks a go a very loud moving sound

>>959899
Did that roof truss break? Is that the loud noise you heard?

>>959928
Even if it was broken, they are there more for holding the roof down in a strong wind than they are for holding weight up.

Seems kind of concerning that the bowed beam is being held by what looks to be a completely unsecured block, wouldn't hurt to shore it up with a couple 4x4's wedged in there.

But I'm just guessing.

yeah because a roof just floats there by itself and the snow forcefield keeps any from landing on it.

Sheet metal weighs fuck all.

Looks like you could remove the joists, put a baseboard on the cement, reinstall the joists directly over said baseboards, then wedge/nail in shims made from a 2x4.

Its not like you're building a space shuttle

>that beam just waiting to burst
you're living in that garbage pit han solo was trying to escape.

You do realise they literally have to tie sheet metal roofs down to the walls otherwise it would just fly off in a breeze.

That doesn't mean it lacks mass, you dipshit.
