gobuildone Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Greetings, does anyone have suggestions on best method to build a flat roof on a garage? Should I just use a floor system or can I build a zero pitched roof system? Thank you, TP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 It really depends on the roof edge condition. If you have overhangs and no parapet walls I would just use a zero pitched roof. Otherwise I would use a floor without a ceiling or roof and set the "ceiling height" to match your desired parapet height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobuildone Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Hi Joe, Thanks for the reply. When I try to assign a 0.0 pitch, Chief makes it 1/4". Is there a way to make it a true zero? I checked Defaults and it will still change to 1/4". thx, TP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
