Thanks Pat,
I'm in Alabama and we have snow load concerns once a century.. If we get a dusting of snow the state goes berserk. I think it's
rated for 5# per sf. Wind ?? I'm not sure, but I'd have a bigger problem with
a cloth canopy. We do get some strong storm winds 30-50 mph sometimes
Often enough that our local expert weatherman James Spann has named a new state
bird

We see this type of cover quite often here in Texas & metal roofs are quite
common. The main concern that I’d have is to have it engineered for wind load.
I don’t remember where you are located but snow load may be a consideration.

I'm looking for a less expensive way to cover a deck (other than a stick built roof $$$$$$)
deck is only 12x12... and under oak trees that keep it stained black from the sap or tannins....I don't
want some canopy that will blow around or rot down in a year or two
Here is what
I'm looking at and with some frame mods (because of the railings on the deck)
it can work . Ignore the vehicles and the concrete.

anyone do anything like this before... Think I'm
thinking wrong ?? It can be secured to the deck structure not just the deck
boards
Forum content... I will use multiple tools installing this
