what do they do to provide the vertical support for the roof along these long slide outs? Does a large snow/ice load cause issues for instance?
Not a structural engineer, but from the looks of it, I'd probably be installing a steel I beam across the top, bottom and with the same for uprights on each end and that would be if it never moved. I really don't think it's a question of if, but when, it's going to give one, some real problems and still say it'a all about cost savings over having 4 smaller ones.
