I have a 20 x 40 shop building for my tractors. It currently has the original roof which is 2x6 rafters, some 1" x 12" boards for sheeting and then old cedar shakes. I am planning to install ribbed steel panels over the top. I was going to line the roof every 3 -4" with 2x4s for nailer boards for the tin. I was planning to nail/screw the 2x4s to the roof rafters and then screw the tin in the flats into the 2x4s. I am looking for some input on the ridge cap and the eaves. Should I use just standard steel ridge cap with the form enclosure strips for the gaps between the ribs? Or is the there a better option? Right now the eaves are just the ends of the rafters with no fascia board. Do I need a fascia board and some metal trim installed there or not? How far should I hang the tin sheets past the existing cedar shingles? Planning to do this weekend and want to do it right and not spend a ton of money (I know those two don"t go together!) Any advice, tips is greatly appreciated.
