    You really should have insulated the upstand because there was no reason not to. Now you have a warm area meeting a cold so you’re bound to have constant condensation during winter

    informative vid . the vapor movement will find it's way through the untaped gaps and rot the ply though surely

    No vapour barrier between deck and insulation ?

    looks like you forgot to install a vapour control layer under the insulation on top of timber deck.... failed LABC regs. likely roof will decay

      Vapour control layer can be added inside, taped and sealed under joists.

    What would be the max. span (wall to wall) for a 2 by 12 soft wood ceiling joists (12 being vertical), that would not bend under snow or it's own weight? i'm looking for a direct approximate answer, i just don't get the online tables ?

    lots and lots of mistakes and essential points left out in this build. I wouldn't be surprised if the ply moulds after 2 years.

    Could you show how it looks after it rains? I just had my flat roof redone and there are a bunch of pools of water and it looks like possibly air pockets....not sure. It's making me nervous.

    The installation of the felt is totally wrong. You never cross bond layers, a venting partial bond layer should have been used as a base layer, the joints in the deck need to be taped, and the deck should have been primed.

      The decking should be under the insulation and the felt should be on top of the insulation.@@TheNorthernmunky

    • @TheNorthernmunky
      @TheNorthernmunky 2 роки тому +3

      Wouldn’t both ways work well? Having the ply under the insulation may also cause cold bridging from the edge of the ply in to the void?! We usually put ply under and over and we insulate all the perimeter joists
