2016 12 28 Garage Roof ..

2016 12 28 Garage Roof .. 

Garage roof is finished.  The material is called TPO and it is durable and waterproof.  Roof drains in as well, one in each corner.  I learned that the half diamond shaped structure with the very gradual slope is called a "cricket".  It gives the roof some slope so water heads for the drains and doesn't pool.  (As I write this I know how much it will rain and snow in early January!)

You can see the high point of the larger "cricket" in the third photo.  There are two smaller crickets in the outer corners of the roof.

There are three skylights in the garage / shop / storage area.
