The main area of the house is going to have an open sliding partition dividing the main living room from the children’s game room. In order to achieve this open span we recycled some bar trusses from a local demolition company.
The main roof structure is built up of TJI’s spanning from bearing wall to bearing wall with 2×6 crossing on top of that. This built up method allows for spray foam insolation for the depth of the 2×6 and still allowing clear chases for MEP’s in the depth of the TJI’s.
The garage roof structure is built up from trusses with 2×8 spanning in between each one.
The main roof of the house is covered with 80 sheets of 4′x8′ osb. Yes, one giant 2,500 sq ft 2.5/12 slope roof.
