Hi all
Could any of the Flat Roof Society out there advise me on the following:
I'm building a 5m x 4m log cabin and don't want to use felt/felt tiles on the roof. Having read quite a lot on here about EPDM, I'm very much inclined down that route - no pun intended.
The thing comes supplied with tounge-and-groove boards for the roof, 11mm thick. I'm assuming it would be best to up that a bit with OSB3, or similar, before applying (gluing on) the EPDM.
The question is this: What thickness of OSB would suffice.
I don't really see the point of loading the purlins - or my wallet - more the necessary by putting thicker than required boarding on it.
Willum
ps We've just bought a 1970s WRECK and this will be my workshop whilst it's in progress - then I'll sit on the verandah and drink beer when it's done Until then, expect to hear a lot more from me.............
