Echo the snow load/wind load question but I'm sure you allowed for it. Do you use Simpson Strong ties to hold the roof down for those strong winds?Sebretianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00972130167643899160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157045391462646486.post-71104141522349022011-05-02T03:30:55.702-07:002011-05-02T03:30:55.702-07:00As for the wind shifts Greg, we thought we would b...As for the wind shifts Greg, we thought we would build to allow for wind shifts. This way we could sway with the wind while up in the loft.

The steep pitch of the roof will also keep the snow accumulation to a minimumCrow's Nest Cafehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901752034755763382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157045391462646486.post-73750828811409942722011-05-01T22:10:15.646-07:002011-05-01T22:10:15.646-07:00I was wondering the same thing....about the snow l...I was wondering the same thing....about the snow load. I trust you have considered 'all the angles', including snow load, valley mitre's, wind shift and fog blindness.
