Re: Construction Help
I don't know if this might help you some.
I built a roof (so to say) under my deck where there is a concrete patio. I wanted for us to be able to sit out there while its raining without the rain coming through the deck and dripping down on us.
I ripped strips the lenghth of the deck joists (in my case 10') out of 2x treated material figuring a 1/4" per foot pitch. Over 10' the strip went from 2 1/2" to nothing. I ripped as many as I needed for every joist above the patio. Then I predrilled the screw holes on the strips. I glued and screwed (s/s screws) the pitch strips on the underside of the joists with the 2 1/2" end away from the house.
This provided the pitch for the water to run away from the house on the top of the 1/2" treated plywood that I predrilled and screwed on next using a lot of caulking especially around the screw holes.
I'm thinking you can do the same then frame your shed walls up to it. You can also put a gutter where the water spills out and lead it away.
If anything accumulates up there (twigs, leafs, etc.) just break out a backpack leafblower and blow it off.
Just a thought. Maybe it'll work for you.
