well first you must eat a ton of chicken noodle soup so your fecile matter will be nice and squishy. and then you are stupid.
In plank and beam framing, the load on the roof is transmitted to the foundation through a series of structural components. The roof's weight is first carried by the roof beams, which distribute the load down to the floor joists. These joists then transfer the load to the supporting beams or walls, ultimately directing the force to the foundation. This system ensures that the structural integrity is maintained and the loads are evenly distributed across the foundation.
Mostly used in building construction. The roof load is carried thru critical points in your home for example to the foundation structure
No, it is a dead load
Non load bearing walls are walls that the weight of the roof is not supported on. Any wall that runs parallel will roof joists will be non load bearing.
Load Bearing - something that bears a load. Like a load bearing wall in a house. The wall is holding something up like the roof, another floor, etc.

Traditionally, frame (roof truss, beams) transfers all loads towards columns, columns transfer vertical loads to foundation, foundations transfer load to the earth.
To determine if a wall is load-bearing in your home, you can consult the original building plans, hire a structural engineer, or look for signs such as the wall's position in relation to the roof and foundation, its thickness, and the presence of beams or columns above it. It is important to seek professional advice before making any modifications to a potentially load-bearing wall.
The purpose of floor support beams in a building's structure is to provide structural support and distribute the weight of the floors, walls, and roof to the building's foundation, ensuring stability and preventing the building from collapsing.
Your question cannot be answered as it depends on what the beams load is... porch roof support vs a beam which will support a second story living area and a roof.
A load bearing structural system is a type of construction method where the primary structure of a building or structure carries the weight and transfers the loads to the foundation. This system relies on the walls, columns, and beams to support the weight of the building and distribute the loads evenly. Load bearing systems are commonly used in residential and low-rise commercial buildings.
The foundation holds a frame structure up. As for the building, it is a group effort. Load bearing walls hold the roof up, but tend to fall over if the roof isn't there to tie the walls together.
Live load Both are the same Live load is all the live loads which can be consider as variable load. Roof live load This is limited to few categories. man who climbed on to the roof can be consider as roof live load.

Roof support beams are essential in a building's structure to provide stability and strength to the roof, ensuring it can bear the weight of the roof materials, snow, and other loads. They help distribute the weight evenly and prevent the roof from collapsing.
Yes. They are called Battens.
No, it is a dead load
