There are three lessons in this course. In lesson one, we start with modeling the roof based on site evaluation drawings. There is a roof geometry quiz at the end of this lesson that must be successfully completed before you can access lesson two. In lesson two, vents and other shading features and obstructions will be added to the roof. The opportunity for doing additional modeling will be provided in this lesson for those that want to learn how to add other features to enhance the roof and make it into a house. This additional modeling is entirely optional. This lesson also has a vent placement quiz that must be successfully completed before you can access lesson three. In lesson three, PV modules will be added to the roof. Also fire code roof access pathways and setbacks will be discussed, analyzed, and used when placing the PV modules. Additionally, other setbacks that are part of good design practice will also be used to determine where to place PV modules. The lesson, and course, will conclude with doing shading analysis to refine PV module placement and system size
