There is also a place on Hwy 22, on the way to Maurepas that has lots of beams...


I too am looking for some beams, can you provide any more info on this place?

Probably what I'll end up doing. Just thought it would be nice to use some old timber for beams and post.

Not from a single beam. Split between 4 beams


I assume the beams will be running across the width not the length. even if it is 1000 lb load that would be 250 lbs per beam distributed across whatever the distance between poles would be.
you can use the calculations on this page to see what you will need. LINK
