builtright3 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Hello Guy's and Gal's, I’m trying to build a patio cover coming off the house with a 1/2" per foot slope and I would like to do part of it solid and part of it with 2x2 lattice like this picture. I was trying to figure out the easiest way that I can do this and maintain the 1/2" per foot slope. Easy to do it flat but not so easy with a slope. Any help would be appreciated.

Chopsaw Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 How about a roof plane with rafters and purlins but no sheathing or shingles ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Something like this and then possibly some manual editing... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRAWZILLA Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I build those lattice roofs using a deck on the 2nd floor adjusting the decking to 2x2 spaced 2" or whatever you need. it also frames the posts and header, very quick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you put a slop on it when you do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRAWZILLA Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I just add a note to the section for the slope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
