Very specific ridge beam to valley beam connection - can't source in the UK? Help?!

Hi people. 

 

What I need is best shown on the Simpson Strong Tie US website, but it's not available in the UK (I've checked with Simpson UK)

It's basically to join two glulam ridge beams, and two glulam valley beams, at one point. It's been specced by the SE. 

 

See drawing of location attached for reference. 

 

Any recommendations of an off the shelf (albeit custom order) part would be great, failing that a steel fabricator who can whip one up at a reasonable cost with drawings of course. 

 

Thanks in advance!

OK we're all at ease :)

 

Your bracket has odd angles?

Hi Alan,

 

Yes as a by product of a wonky old house and an angled extension they’re not the same angles.
