  • Roof: The roof is framed using 2x4's to build rafter trusses. It is sheeted with 1/2" O.S.B.
  • Roof Pitch: 4/12, this means that for every 4 inches of rise there is 12 inches of run horizontally.
  • Roof Overhang: 2 inches on gable ends and 6" on eves. Options are there for longer overhangs on the gable ends.
  • Roofing: 25 year asphalt shingles
  • Trim: 1x4 and 1x6 wood, masonite or cement trim materials are used to finish the corners, windows, and door.
  • Floor Load: 50 pounds per square foot for framed floors. This is the common strength of a residential home.
  • Roof Snow Load: 40 pounds per square foot. This is more than adequate for most areas. If you live in an area with a high snow load you should check with your local building department for your local snow load. Contact us and we can specify stronger roof framing.
