I have been getting inquires about adding a layer of 3/8" osb over lumber roof decking. The inquires come from what is reported to be a requirement of the asphalt shingle manufacturer that you cannot have over a 1/4" gap bettween the decking boards. We recently had a hail storm and many of the homes are being reroofed. My first thought is remove the boards and redeck the roof. Could roof loads be a factor? Engineering required to add load? Has anyone worked with this type problem or request? How do you handle this type of inquiry? Thanks, Uncle Bob
