Script

Cut 4 purlins and 2 end caps for roof frame - fitted between long 16' members so that the panel is 3' wide. Note that we are not using plywood here.
Screw 2 long members and 2 end caps together using [3] 3" screws
Screw in purlins at marked locations
Invert on sawhorses and staple tyvek base layer upon which insulation will sit
Re-invert to right-side-up and insert insulation
Cover the top of panel with Tyvek as a moisture barrier under metal roofing. Note: do not install metal roofing - it is not possible to line up the seams this way, so roof metal goes on last.
