Re: [GBlist] Ventilating a Shed Roof

The rafters are basically flat (1/8"
per foot), sloping up to connect to the existing 2-story house.  The new
1-story space is finished and conditioned, and there will be a living roof
on the addition.  The goal is to vent the new roof where it attaches  to the
existing house so there is continuous airflow above the insulation.


if you are going to put a living roof, why don't you insulate above the roof and under the earth, then you can have a wonderful exposed roof structure below    Linda Lloyd
