Covered Patio Structure and Roof Framing

What happens here

Carefully remove the existing house siding where the new covered patio structure will attach, ensuring a clean and secure connection. Install the ledger board, which is directly bolted to the house's framing, and erect the main support beams for the covered patio. Proceed with building the wooden deck frame on the previously installed footings, utilizing saws and drills for precise cuts and secure fastening. Lay down a plywood subfloor over the deck joists to create a solid walking surface. Subsequently, construct the roof structure using wooden beams and joists, ensuring correct pitch and support. Cover the roof framing with plywood sheathing for structural integrity, and then apply a protective layer of roof underlayment (Tyvek HomeWrap is visible on the house siding in later steps) to prepare for final roofing materials.

Goal: This step details the construction of the covered patio's main structure, including ledger board installation, deck framing, subfloor laying, and roof framing with sheathing and underlayment.
