Maybe I'm the one thats confused. Doesn't ice and water get applied on top of the OSB?

Of course! I'm talking under the shingles:thumbup:

I live in MN. My question is do you have to put on ice and water on a roof of a detached garage? It's not going to be heated.

Maybe I will go 18" all the way around.

The trusses have a 24 inch overhang. I was planning on doing a 18" overhang on the gable end. Is 18" ok or is 12" the standard? I know very little about soffit and fascia...

They made mine at 39". But I think it is supposed to be 38"

All 4 walls are up. My question is does one put the wall sheathing on before the trusses or after? I plan on using OSB. Size of garage is 20x20. Thanks

Dipper: Looks great! Good job.

This is what I was thinking of doing. Seems strong to account for snow load.

I pick option D

I'm building my 20x20 garage and it will have 12" overhang on the gable ends. I'm not quite sure how to go about framing the overhang. Is it standard practice to just nail lookouts to the gable end truss? Any help is appreciated. I'm in Minnesota.

I'll keep the pics coming. I take a pic after each day of work. Ya the guy behind got the building bug from me and I got the bug from the neighbor to the left of me.

The start of my 20x20 Garage. updated pics 10/14 Thought I'd share a few pics.
