that probably should have read patio soffit with the connections held up at 2'OC. I'm happy w/ myself for finding a closeout on large headed durarock style screws for next to nothing-makes installation overhead a snap. Big question was would the thinner Universal be ok at 2'OC hoizontal nailing pattern versus the 5/8" Pro which I'm currently putting up at 2'OC. the blocking is the big deal-each piece has to be installed w/ carriage bolts overhead to steel C beams...24"oc vs 16"oc is more labor than the cost of the material upgrade.
