ABSTRACT:
A pedestal (18) for use in conjunction with a framing member (11) to support a supplemental roof (16) in superposed spaced relation to a deck roof (10) or other primary roof of a building. Since blanket or other conventional insulation can be placed in the spaces between the primary and supplemental roofs and between adjacent pedestals, the aesthetics of the exposed plank ceiling are preserved. To transfer vertical loading, each of the pedestals (18) is positioned to overlie, and be anchored to, a framing member (14, 15) of the primary roof. At the peak (P) of the roof, complementary configured tabs (38) and receptacles (40) interconnect the adjacent pedestals. Use of wider framing members (11) or an optional extension cap (44) and spacer block (42) increases the spacing between the primary and supplemental roofs to accommodate additional insulation. To avoid condensation and conductive heat losses, the pedestal, extension cap, and spacer block are each preferably single pieces of plastic, with the pedestal and spacer block having honeycomb cores (28, 43) that are filled with an insulating material.
