I know you didn't ask this question, but depending on what you plan to use for roofing materials that may not be enough of a pitch

Doesn't seem hardly enough that's like a 1.5/12 pitch.

Quoted:
Length of porch 183" height 96" if I put a 1/8 drop per inch what is the end height ? I'm coming with a 22" drop is that right? Thanks for the help EPDM or other membrane roofing is the only thing usable at that low a pitch. The EPDM on my father's house is about 35 years old and has never leaked. It has wrinkled a little over the years though. |

Shallow pitch roofs don't drain very well during intense rain storms. Be very careful how the roof is attached to the house and the flashing and counter flashing at the junction. Caulk will NOT cut it!
My advice - get a professional to do the flashing and roofing. Another though - be sure you have adequate height at the rafter ends to install standard size windows and doors. Otherwise, be prepared for expensive, custom-sized windows and odd-ball, low clearance doors. Doors need a substantial header, too. |
