I want to remove the PVC panels from my deck porch cover and replace with r panel metal roofing like my back deck has. What is the MAXIMUM overhang for steel r panel.
I have it framed out 24 OC with 24" apart blocking.
Here is the r panel I will be ordering:
MBCI: PBR (http://www.mbci.com/pbr.html)
I don't want the rain on the edge of my deck!
Thanks,
Patty

12" unsupported would be the max I would consider.

That's what I was hoping for. I'll wait for some more answers.
Thanks,

I just extended a carport for a customer and we ran the front extension out 12". This will only work with the ribs extended, not on a side.
