I'm willing to accept they left it unmanned for safety concerns. These are Government workers and OSHA is kind of big a thing. That said, as I stated in another post on the matter, leaving the rooftop unmanned should have immediately flagged it as a vulnerability requiring additional surveillance and monitoring. I'm carrying 2 bundles of shingles and a nail gun hooked to a hose that is tangling on everything it can. or perhaps a 15 foot long sheet of roofing metal while walking on the truss. Your statement makes it pretty clear you have never been on a 4/12 to 5/12 roof. That means every foot it increases 4 to 5 inches. That isn't squat. Did you work for Pepsi? Edit, looking again at the roof below. 3/12 pitch is possible. Edited July 17 by Fansince88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in PA where they can get a lot of snow and because of the low slope of the roof, building code would require a pretty heavy load capacity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the contractors I talked to mentioned that some roofers have utilized magnets in their shoes to avoid slipping on metal roofs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They took their shoes off to get traction. It was a cooler day but the roof was 7/12 so right at the limis for slip. I use ropes in that instance.

The oversight committee will call Wray, Mayorkas, and Cheeto who will answer almost every question with their patented "I can't answer that question as it pertains to an ongoing investigation" On another note the most preposterous thing coming out yesterday from these idiots isn't even the slope roof, it's the claim that had increased Trump's security detail weeks before due to a critical threat from Iran.... So are you really telling me that even with increased security a 20 year old introvert easily outsmarted them and somehow knew in advance that roof was going to be open for him to use enough to buy a ladder just for that? Sadly since the assassination attempt we've had the guy shot recently with a knife near the RNC, now apparently someone arrested with an assault rifle nearby. I pray the attempt didn't just declare open season on Trump as others might copycat to get it right so that frigging security better figure it out quickly! 1 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
