QUOTE(paskal @ Oct 6 2014, 02:43 PM) yes. the roof is very large indeed. roof rafter length is longer than any roofing guide that i've read. unless you have a 12" diameter pipe or larger, i will see the downpipe get choked with water if it rains too heavilywhat do you mean with the rainwater piping? do you think a single drain pipe (per side) is not gonna be sufficient? i was opting to collect the rainwater, thus the single drain at the middle span. the roof drain pipe area is marked with yellow in this figure:   you may have water spillover from the raingutter if that happens imagine pouring a pail of water rapidly into this funnel:  just sharing info for you. maybe will neeed consideration and see your rainfall record in your area. |
