Hey guys,
Could you offer more detail on how you plan to frame your dormers with just panels? I'm in the design phase of my 3 gable dormers and am using panels for the main roof. From what I gather, it sounds like you are saying to frame the gable with wood and then use ONLY panels to build back to the main roof. Perhaps a ridge board to attache the dormers roof panels?
I'm doing a timber rafter system: common tapered rafters (6x6 at eve to 4x6 at peak) @ 32" oc with open pegged M&T at ridge.
To save labor time (winter is coming...) i had planned to build the dormers as stick frame structures.
Thanks,
Shaun
