Roof beam (6)

I believe the answer is:

rafter

'roof beam' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for rafter that I've seen before include "Sloping roof timber" , "Roofing beam" , "person on floating logs" , "support" , "Sloping beam that supports the roof" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the King Feature Syndicate, The Independent, the Penny Press, the Evening Standard, The Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
