- Re: tying the porch roof into the main house... I'll add I'd also go with 5/8 CDX ply for the roof sheathing. That added 1/8 goes a long way to resist uplift , and as you know wind in your area is a BIG issue.

Place the second metal sheet alongside the first with an overlap of 3 to 4 inches (or 10 cm).Secure the sheets together using hex screws and washers. 1  Whenever possible, line up the ridges of each metal sheet. 2  This will create a tighter roof and make it easier to drill in the screws..

Roof Sheathing Basics Roof Sheathing Materials and More. The skeleton of a roof is formed with rafters or trusses, generally spaced 16 inches or 24 inches apart from the center of one rafter to the center of the next. To stabilize the rafters, support the roofing material, and hold the entire roof together, roof sheathing is installed.

How to Frame a Porch Overhang How to Frame a Porch Overhang. The overhang on a porch roof protects the porch from runoff water. Although a porch roof's overhang gives a house an ornamental touch, the overhang isn't just decorative; it helps to keep rain and sun off the porch and protects the structure of the building from damage. It performs an important function, but it's a relatively simple part of the structure in terms of its framing.

Rise and Run for Your Porch Roof If your roof has a rise and run of 3/12 or less, multiply length times width. That was easy. For roofs over 3/12 measure multiply the length of your home by the width of your home after you add in the overhang. If you have a 1 foot overhang add 2 feet to the width and 2 feet to length. Multiply them together. Example: Your porch is 42 feet long and 10 feet wide and has a 1 foot overhang.

Trusses, Rafters... What the Heck is the Difference? They are designed to carry the load of a home’s roof to the outside walls, shipped to the construction site, and installed using a crane after the home’s walls have been framed. The triangles formed by the beams, bars and ties allow the truss to distribute the weight it carries over a broader area.

- Metal roofing can be installed over solid wooden deck, minimum 7/16”. Use solid sheeting with a heavy snow load or a low slope roof (2/12). Also, the use of 26 gauge material is recommended. In some areas 2X4 strapping on 16” centers will be adequate. For ridge vents make sure you leave a 1 ½” on each side.

The panels are attached to the roof deck with metal clips and screws.

How to Install a Porch Railing Prep Your Porch. Before installing a new railing, take time to inspect the condition of your porch. Make any necessary repairs to the floorboards or siding. If you're building a new home, paint the exterior and install the porch flooring before building the railing. Otherwise, you'll have to install the flooring around the railing posts, and the railing may get damaged in the process. Porch railings can be constructed from wood, metal, stone or synthetic materials.
