A small but important roof

Started the day by assembling the covered deck bent and the small bent over the entrance way.  No big problems except for the all the mud from the rains.  We laid out plastic covers and it kept our feet from getting too mucky.  Fired up the truck and crane and placed the entrance cover in place.  Soon the raftewrs were on and the boys were moving to the other roof for sheeting.

Should be finished the sheeting by the weekend.  I decided to put some insulation in place before the sheeting covered over the space which would make it impossible to do. While I was up there I decided to take some photos from the very top of the roof while I still could.  After the sheeting goes on it is very difficult to keep from sliding off.  Looking forward to placing the deck bent tomorrow as that was going to happen next spring until we realized we needed it for the final roof line.

  1. Including a photo of the roof line from the plan would help with the confusion that this picture creates (how all of this ties together). :-)
    Great picture - I like the way the strapping sort of hides part of the joist so it looks like they are offset.
