Hello everyone,

We are currently uncertain about our roof construction and carpentry work. We would like to have a clad shed roof with an internal gutter, but we are unsure how to install the gutter cost-effectively within this setup. This is roughly what it should look like:

Modern white residential facade with black entrance, gray roof extension, and street lamp.


Our architect (old school) has planned the following construction for the eaves side:

Section through wall construction with insulation, foundation, and connection area, about 50 cm (20 inches)


As you can see, he intends to work with an extended bracket. This raises concerns for me regarding the costs.
Do you see any other options? For your information: Due to the low pitch (8°), it will probably be a membrane roof.

Thank you in advance.

Is there no additional insulation layer (Pavatex or similar) above the rafters? From the detail, I see a ventilation gap above the rafters, correct? With a roof pitch of 8 degrees, a standing seam zinc roof might be an alternative, if you like that style.

- No, apparently all the insulation is planned to be installed between the rafters.
- Exactly, there should be ventilation.

The remaining question is: How can this "internal" gutter be cost-effectively implemented or covered without having the complicated construction at the eaves?

.. and always keep in mind that it must remain plasterable.
