The weight of a dormer depends on dimensions, structure, and materials. It is supported by sleepers that distribute the load over multiple rafters or purlins of the existing roof structure.

A standard prefab dormer weighs several hundred to over a thousand kilograms, depending on width and execution. The exact weight follows from the manufacturer's production specification.
For the structural assessment, not only the dead weight counts, but also snow, wind, and live load (for example, roof maintenance). The interaction of these determines the final dimensioning of sleepers and trimmer construction.
