Abstract

See full text

A building structure adapted allows for ventilation of vapors from within the structure so as to retard deterioration of the structure. The building structure has a roof extending over one or more vertical side walls. An attic space is enclosed between the roof and an internal ceiling. The roof is constructed on a plurality of parallel rafters. The rafters are supported by a top plate capping each vertical side wall. The roof has a roof sheathing member overlying the roof rafters. A fascia is secured to the outer ends of the roof rafters and at least one portion of the fascia is spaced from the outer ends of the rafters. An air permeable and resilient strip is interposed between the fascia and the outer ends of the rafters to provide for the flow of vapor therebetween and into the attic.
