Finally, a Roof!

This was on Monday, November24th. The final pour had been done on Friday, and the house is ready for the roof. A better view of the roof trusses below.


The roof is actually going up! This was from Wednesday. The trusses are all in place, and the front and back gables are done.
A view from the south shows the roof line. The thermal solar panels will be at the top of the roof, then there will be a 5 foot wide living roof, and the the PV solar panels will be at the bottom.
Different angles on the roof due to the different solar panels.
The picture above and below show the south roof lines. The solar thermal panels on top will provide the hot water for the radient in-floor heating system (as well as the hot water for the house) and the solar PV panels at the bottom will provide most of the electricity.
Jim Klem and crew are putting on the plywood sheeting.
