I would like to build a carport with a deck over it. I can gain access to the deck by installing a door in place of an existing window. I would like to just use some kind of solid decking like t&g, but I don’t know if that’s a good idea since the deck will not be covered by a roof. If I use regular 5/4 the water will drip through on to the car. Does anyone have an idea of how to build a roof with a deck over it . I would like to keep the framing as narrow as posible since head room in the carport is limited. By the way the carport/ deck is going to be 16′ by 20′. Thanks to anyone who can help, Tom PS: the house has a walk out basement – thats why there is room for a carport under the deck.

try the search for EPDM and decks. There is a current thread on this.
