Dec 30-31: Sloped Roof (continued)


After the SIP's on the east sloping roof are in place, the north sloping roof SIP installation begins, below. 


The expanded polystyrene core of the roof SIP's are 12" thick and provide an insulation value of R50.

Billy installs a SIP on the north sloping roof inbetween structural members that converge at the Cable Truss Saddle connection, below.


The north sloping roof SIP's are installed, below, but not without considerable on-site cutting of all compound angles resulting from where the roof SIP's attach to the hip beam, which arrived uncut and extra long from the factory.  Hardly an assembly ready SIP package!  


Only one flat roof area at the top remains....
