Reply to "finished the frame work"

1/2" plywood is plenty strong if supported correctly.

5/8" is permitted as roof sheathing supported at 24" o.c.

2x4's are permitted as rafters at spans of about six feet, depending on snow loading.

Think about most sheds that are 2x3 or 2x4 framing with 1/2" sheathing.  Strong enough to walk on for roofing installation, snow, wind...

All depends how well it is built, braced, fastened etc., although I take no exception to overbuilding things.
