A corbel for what purpose? Any pics?

Normally it projects as far as the structure above it projects.

Glad to hear that Mark. I was afraid that our garage eyebrow corbels are going to be too large.

Looks fine.

A corbel is a structural support or an apparent structural support. It should be sized to support the overhanging element above the corbel.

In the photos above the corbels appear to be redundant since they seem to parallel the roof framing which creates the overhanging soffits. They would appear to be more logical if found in the eves of the roof.

Virgil is right.

Where do you plan to locate these "corbels"? Can you provide drawing(s) that show where you propose to place them. Where you think they look good may make others cringe.

Just to be clear, I am not the OP to this thread.

"A corbel is a structural support or an apparent structural support. It should be sized to support the overhanging element above the corbel."

Virgil Carter Fine Art - The above photos show the corbels supporting, or appear to be supporting, the eyebrow over the garage. It is separate from the garage roof. And although the eyebrow is self supporting, visually, the structure needed the supports.
