I need to replace the half wall and the squares that are rotted. The half wall is hollow and about a foot wide with siding on the exterior and bead board on the interior. How do I brace the roof while i replace the columns. There are two on the corner right next to each other so where would I put the support?
my covered supporting columns are resting on a rotted square and then a rotted half wall.

Do this gradually, and start from the bottom. Try using other materials other than wood when choosing replacement square columns so that it would last longer and would not rot easily.
