Install This Row First
Install roof sheathing on the steep side of the roof. Use a straight edge to align the top of the
sheathing with the top of the truss. See Detail 'B'. Make sure the trusses are plumb and the roof
sheathing meets the center of the truss. Use 7d sinkers spaced 12" apart.
The top roof sheathing will not extend to the ridge. This will allow an opening for air ventilation
when you install a ridge vent.
