Garage Door Header On Gable End

As such the wind loads c c on the gable end will be felt by the garage door header and sizing of the header may be affected by this increased biaxial loading situation d 6w or d 0 75 0 6w 0 75 s.

Garage door header on gable end. It is a hipped roof so it is load bearing header that i will need to make. However it seems like picture one uses the most floor space. Since there is very little weight on this end my thoughts are 2 2x8 s. At 8psf conservative for a stud wall with plywood and siding and taking an average height of the gable as 3 i would use maybe 25 plf for the gable end wall.

Really kind seems to me like i ll save floor space by putting the doors on the gable end. Two overhead doors ten foot wide plus a 3 foot man door need between 26 and 30 foot of linear space depending on how tight i want to go to the walls and between garage door bays. One aligned with the exterior one aligned with the interior and then filled the 2 1 2 space in between with insulation. Where would i get this made if it has to be.

Garage size is 18 x 24. I have now a 9 x7 door with a 2 x 10 header. What size would i make the header for a 14 x7 door. Would like opinions on the size of header beam needed for a 10 wide garage door on the gable end of the building.

I would like to make my garage door 14 wide. So it looks like the only load the header is taking is the gable end wall and self weight. The door is on the gable end of the garage and the total span is 16 4 with a total garage outside width of 16 11. I live in the pacific nw too and i used two 2x10 headers over every door and window opening 2x6 walls even on the gable ends.
