continuation of truss roofing










Today after putting our saddles in level we were constructing eves without hardie flex. first we started with cutting the tails off the truss to a long as possible length and had to apply that same length to all the rest of the truss tails. after we cut all tails we placed fascia clips at the end of the truss tails and screwed them on to a required height then cut the fascia to the length needed and placed them on the fascia clips, then when all fascia is on we put on internal and external corners on



After all fascia was on we started to screw down all speed brace to all trusses starting at the bottom outside trusses to the top middle truss



then when speed bracing was complete we marked out were roof battens were going (150mm from ridge line, 100mm up from fascia and in the middle of those two marks. also 150mm from each hip out to the next rafter). before putting our battens on we had to put our valley boards on to the measurement of the valley tray.
