Course Description & Details
Like decks, porch roofs are often considered easy construction and are typically attempted by new contractors or weekend warrior homeowners. However, the truth is quite the contrary. Porch roofs require significant evaluation depending on the extreme variety of their design. This class reviews the code application of these projects from the rafters to the foundation.
Course Objectives
- Understand the significant differences between constructing with a ridge board or a ridge beam.
- Learn the various ways to connect a porch roof to an existing house.
- Realize the limitations of prescriptive, structural design and when engineered design is necessary.
