While the example site-built home does not have a finished attic, this lesson reviews the steps needed to enter audit information for a finished attic. Like the entry for an unfinished attic, you will need to have the following information about your structure:
Attic area type
Attic floor type
Area (in square feet)
Existing insulation type and depth
Type, R-value and/or depth of any added insulation
In this lesson, you will also learn about various attic area types, including:
Kneewall
Outer ceiling joist
Collar beam
Roof rafter
This lesson also discusses the options you have for using the Finished Attic tab versus using the Unfinished Attic tab combined with the Walls tab.
