Default Building screen room...

How do I go about screening in this patio.
http://people.eku.edu/cornmanadm/screen_room.jpg
It's located in central Ky and it is about 32 feet wide and 14 feet
deep.

I've got lots of questions...

Can you bolt the ledger on through the brick (to the band) or does it
have to come off around the ledger?
Is 2x6 enough for the ledger?
Is 2x6 joists on 16" center enough?
How to get around the chimney?
What's the best roof material... rubber? Assume flat roof for now.
What kind (diminsion) of post/studs to use? Best way to anchor them to
brick covered concrete?
How to attach screen?

Anything else?
