,your going to regret not going for a "warm roof void" = PUR boards on top of the ply before the rubber thus still retaining inside space and no condensing on the underside of your boards in winter,right by your tools too

That RSJ resting on timber wouldn't pass building control,not saying its wrong,but i've seen these fail in the past,its all down to fire and rot etc
It should have either pad stone or be bricked up to the RSJ

Just as well it isn't resting on it then, the foam should be a give away on that, support is either side and I am adding a station under the interconnection

That's the rub isn't it when you work off silly books that keep changing to correct the mistakes you keep making

yeah, on paying work, other than that its built to Kent regs
Its set into and through the wall and there is more steel built into that wall under it acting as a big pad. I can see how you might think that because its so over engineered on those brackets but you see we get massive wind gusts here and its there to negate lift on the roof as the doors are often open. The whole roof would pass Bregs without steel at all as it happens. 8x3" C23 graded full width unbroken.
I did it because I can and I put it all up single handed without a machine, no I am not kidding either

Have you thought about moving them first?
I mean you look at the risk of anything first right? In fact the meter box is on the other side at a lower level that's more scary but its all managed by correct safe procedure. Putting things away and not leaving them strewn about carries its own risk you understand right?If you look I have paint and thinners on a welding bench, pretty real fire risk when I start welding or grinding but it goes to another building before I do such things.
