[modeleng] Re: Shed Roofing in U K ????

Could I please have an explanation?

SHED Buildings in U. K.

I note that a shed built in the back yard,  ( behind the house,) some have
brick walls, others have ply or timber (lumber) walls, built on concrete or
wood floors.

Then, THE ROOF,  felt?     Why?
Corrugated iron would be a lot easier to put on your roof frame.  Here in
New Zealand, we have CI in either zinc coated or "Colorsteel," a factory
coated colour, in various colours too.  And either lead-head nails or
special screws that self drill and thread into steel purlins. A membrane and
insulation pads are fitted into wall and ceiling cavities, and we have a
nice, snug Work Shed.  Insulation helps keep tools and machines, rust-free.

Why Felt?
