The T&G and beams look great, this is the look I want for a 24x24 addition on my home. How will you insulate and finish the roof? What is your roof pitch, and how will you deal with the splice of the two ridge beams. You have done a great job with the photo's and the home.
a layer of 4 mil poly goes down over this, then the raycore panels go down over this. The panels will run horizontally and timberlock screws will go down through the panels and T&G and into the rafters. Purlins go down vertically over that then the plywood sheathing.
As for the splice, there are 4x4x10 angle brackets that will get through bolted all around.
. They did not finish this one as we are going to swap the 8" long bolts for 7". Better than cutting them off.
edit: The roof pitch is 8/12 for this room and 5/12 for the trusses. Architectural shingles will be used.
If this question has been answered before, please excuse my brain fart for not recalling the post. Will there be some sort of caulking or other sealing on the roof deck side of the T & G boards?
The T&G does not provide any kind of structural element. The Raycore panels provide that as well as the insulation (R42).
