I have post-and-beam home with a cathedral ceiling, so the existing roof decking is attached with 10" long spikes through styrofoan insulation into the beams in the cathedral ceiling. Would there be a problem with putting a metal roof on this structure ?

I would choose a product and the address this with the manufacturer. More information is needed but this may be a feasible installation. There may be ventilation issues to address as well. Todd Miller
