Re: Openings to attics
Thanks Jim
I definitely have to stop interjecting my personal opinions into my comments on this site. I always stick my foot in my mouth.
I just looked over my wording in the report and did not beet up the code or manufacturers installation. I mentioned the gaps wide open to the attic, the sheathing touching the shingles and the spaces should have been closed off with flashing. I did foolishly state that before leaving gaps and having the sheathing touching the shingles I would have just brought the hardi material close enough to the roof to keep the attic area closed off. Hmm, 3 out of 4. I know follow the specs. That's why I am on here, it shows me the errors of my ways.
I will certainly state it properly in the future and give them the specs and try to hold off with my personal likes.
But damn, it sure do look ugly. I would close it off if I were building it for myself with concrete trim products. Shoot I did it again. Somebody please stop me.
Thanks guys
Ted
