It will need engineering plans that are signed off. Depending on what the rules are in your state the alteration to your house will possibly need to be sighted and inspected by your local council. I'm so sorry, but I'm afraid this is a project where you will have to get the professionals involved. In this manner, it will be built to carry weight. I recommend engaging the services of an engineer or builder for a quote for possible conversion costs. Placing a sheet of plywood will not be enough to support you and the items you will be storing. Your local council will have regulations regarding the use of the attic as storage. Many conditions need to be taken into account when converting the space. Turning your attic or roof space for storage is a serious undertaking because it impacts major structural aspects of the house. It's awesome to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about your attic storage. Hello to the Bunnings Workshop community. This is standing on the LVL looking across the area (pre ladder being installed). This is the LVL and ceiling joist hanger to the right. This is an alternative plan - with timber but only if I’m able to make use of the LVL. This is the same as above but from above. Hoping someone can provide some advice - as I don’t think laying boards straight onto the ceiling joists is wise - which is the advice I’ve been given by attics storage installers! ? The one below is steel, sliding a larger section in adjacent to the LVL to pick up the joist hanger. I’ve got creative on sketchup and thinking either steel or wood, adding another LVL to assist. I’m wanting to know if that LVL will support “floor joists” for mdf floor boards or do I need to create a new subfloor. The large red beam is an LVL that spans the drop zone (3 odd metres). This is the current timber from top plate upwards overlayed to scale on the house plans (see below for house plan dimensions). Hey Team, I’m wanting to add attic storage to our house but haven’t had much luck speaking with engineers - who want to take my first born for any advice provided. ![]()
