Project: Framing the Roof

Bob meets with building consultant Steven Easley to learn about Tyvek: what it is, how it works, and how to install it.

Bob meets with Brian Redding (from the APA) to learn more about roof framing techniques for resisting hurricanes and high winds.

Bob helps lay rafters and the ridge pole for the vaulted roof of the Lifespan House.

The neighborhood of I’On is built around myriad architectural styles and designs. Bob takes a look at, and remarks upon, some of these variations throughout the neighborhood, before returning to the project site, where roof framing is underway.
