If you noticed that there was no plan for roof trusses in the original drawings, you have just seen evidence of the unstable process of building an unconventional building. I had originally planned to use salvaged material intended for the walls of a metal quanset hut to form the porch roof. It would have been so expensive to get it engineered to comply with code, that we made the decision to go with a conventional roofing system using new material. The roof covering will be Galvalume 5V metal (tin), attched with screws.Sunday, May 23, 2010
