    In the future you might want to consider adding a gutter system to catch rain water into a 10 to 15K gallon tank with a pump system so that you will have additional water for your avacado trees when water is scarce.

    @douglasthompson2740 Год назад

    I have never seen any metal roofing cut after it is in place (your gable end walls). That is really doing it the hard way. I don't envy you hanging over the edge to do it either. In tight spaces at times a man lift can be a better option as the bucket rotates to place the truss. Makes it ideal for precise placing in tight areas. For light work like that they are perfect and have plenty of load capacity to lift the truss especially as you do it from ground operation unless you have three or more people. Good thing it worked out pretty well for you as wind can ruin a lot of expensive metal in a hurry. I liked your rebar schedule but I go #5 or #6 so that the clods placing it have a harder time tromping it to the ground between dobes (for that reason I place them at every intersection as well). They don't pull that on commercial jobs with inspectors there that have the contractor jack hammer any substandard out at their own cost but the homeowner has a very hard time finding a contractor and crew that know what they are doing and do it conscientiously. Too late now but I also would have put a grid of steel in your lift footings and tied that to the slab grid to spread the load. You are going to enjoy the space for sure.
