A metal roof needs proper ventilation from the eave to the ridge.
On this project, our PM shows how air enters through the bird blocks at the lower edge of the roof, moves through the ventilation space, and exits at the ridge.
At the ridge, wire mesh helps keep birds, bees, and other critters out.
These details may not be visible once the roof is finished, but they play an important role in how the roofing and attic ventilation system works together.
