Crossing the Road
I "updated" your photo in my post. Still learning from Aart, 3KillerBs, a couple others here, almost every day.Not exactly sure what his plan is for rain. The other side of the fence is an alleyway.
That's where two smaller boards are joined. Not sure if he's putting additional blocks. I like the idea of one wall bring all screen (hardware cloth).
Thanks for the great advice!
Definite overkill on the framing for the roof, but nice angle cuts. Shame if they have to come down.
If you can't dump water over the fence (generally, that's considered rude, if not an outright code violation), I'd look to put a shallow gutter at the lower side, then use blocks or similar to lift your purlins to provide clearance for your roof above the gutter.
Prices being what they are, metal roofing is cheapest and easiest right now, but with your length, you will have to cut it. Don't forget eyes and hands, cut sheet metal is stupid sharp. Polycarbonate is about the same price, not as durable, but will let some light thru - and of course, easier to cut with the circular saw.
