I'd like to run this by you, open to other ideas, but this is going to Pa., snow country! I'm a So Cal boy and know nuthing about snow loads and didn't design this for that. I'm actually getting a liability release from them for any damage / failure due to snow loading


I've come up with this metal plate idea,

I've come up with this metal plate idea,
Hello Joe,
I am a native Pennsylvanian. That metal plate would fail because its relying on its shear strength rather than its tensile strength. I would recommend using a Simpson H1 hurricane tie and place it flush behind the main beam and attach under the jack.
-
That's a good idea Steven! I've put them on outside of beam but never inside, I can see where it would help a lot! I'm going to look for other ties that could be run up and over the jack rafter.
-
Yeah this is a unique moment in the structure that would require the tie to be located in the back to counter balance. Nonetheless, can't wait to see the final product, it'll look beautiful.

So the Ichiban Azumaya! is going up! You need to shout that like a samurai


I give them good installation Info and like I said the CNC cut roof parts almost click together, look at how nice that first skip sheathing fares in
that's a beautiful curve.


it's looking real nice! All the skip sheathing is clear vertical grain too.

Wow! Looking fine! Looks like they had no trouble putting it up either!
