    It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book kzread.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

    Hi Michelle, each roof shape and type have there own advantages and disadvantages depending on what you need the roof to do.

    Very good. You don't need the purlings unless you want to over kill it and spend more money and time. The only time you need those is if the span is greater than the 2x member requires. Also, collar ties are not needed if you have ceiling joists that tie into the rafters. I idea for a collar tie is to keep the rafters from spreading, which the ceiling joist do. Over all a good video.

    Hi Edward, thanks for your comment, however, I have to correct you on a couple of points. Firstly Purlins are required whenever your rafter spans further than it' maximum permissible span in AS 1684 Residential Timber Framed Construction. However, I agree that there are situations where increasing the size of the rafter and therefore it's span would be more economical than the time and materials required for Purlins, Struts and supporting beams. Secondly and again according to AS1684 Residential Timber Framed Construction, Collar ties are required on ALL coupled roofs whether they have a ceiling or not, furthermore, if you have more than one row of Purlins you can actually end up with multiple runs of Collar Ties (Appendix I). Without knowing where you are from it is hard to know what your local requirements are but these are the requirements for Australia as per the Standard. Hope this helps

    The issue with trusses is that they have to be designed by an engineer if you want to use them in a house or anything that you are going to put through council really. If your just doing a chookshed or a dog house then making your own trusses is the way to go. Hope this helps.

    Hi Mate, a rule of thumb is only applicable if you are using the same size and strength grade timber on every job as it changes for each size and grade. Purlins need to be spaced so the rafters do not exceed their maximum allowable span and struts must be installed so the purlin doesn't exceed their maximum allowable span.

    Hi Mate, I can't be 100% certain however there are circumstances where some sizes don't work well with standard member sizes. This means that not only do you get a lot of waste from the process but you also spend extra time and labour cutting members to the required size. Perhaps it is a popular size but just not efficient in using the stock material sizes. Hope this helps.

    My contractor is just about to order my manufactured truss for my home and I am realizing that my engineer may not have remembered that I want as much storage as possible above my new living room. (Although I would think he would have asked me???) I am adding 900 square feet to my 1400 sq ft home. Although I cant read plans, it seems to be calling for a gable truss, 24" on center. I see other notes like California framing, and also a tie truss & valley truss. The plan shows pull down stairs, but I am worried that the stairs are pointless if I cant use the space for storage. I have lots of bins, memorabilia, skis, etc.. I would like to store. Should I stop the order, and go back to the engineer? Do I need to request a specific "attic truss"? I didn't vault the ceiling specifically so I could use the space for storage.

    @@Buildsum Your response is greatly appreciated : ) Quick follow on question please.... Would you ever rest a wooden ridge board (like in your video) on top of the inner leaf gable wall for support (and cement it in)? - I seen videos were the ridge seems to be totally **independent** of the brick/wall gable walls (pikes). So the first rafters on each side, comes up to meet the ridge ***in between**** the two brick/block leafs ****but they absolutely never**** connect to the gables in any way. (I guess this is to stop wind force acting on the roof knocking the gable walls out ) - But then again, I also seen retrofit video (attic conversions) were a H beam replaces the ridge board and ***actually sits*** on the top of the inner leaf and the rafters come up to meet it. (sometimes 3 H beams are used in this scenario one @ ridge 2 @ each side of cavity closers and struts come up vertical from then to hit rafters for support) Can you give a video for these two types of use cases if you ever find time?

    Hi JMS, so it would depend on the pitch of the roof. So let's assume a 25-degree pitch. So 0.190 / Cos 25 = 0.209. So the Ridge would need to be at least 0.209mm wide and a minimum of 19mm thick. The length is not really an issue as you can join the ridge kzread.info/dash/bejne/h4Zkj8N8nKnAYbQ.html So you will probably have to use something around 240 wide x 19mm thick and maybe need a couple of joins.

    I'm sure u know what kinda roof I'm talking about. it's like a dome and the metal is thin and it has no plywood at all. just kinda sitting there. I'm not a rich man and I would appreciate any idea on what I can do to help keep my home cool and warm

    Hi Randy, Yes i get the picture now. The first thing i would look at is Insulation and Ventilation. If the Roof/Ceiling is not insulated then even putting a Gable roof on the building won't stop the heat transfer from the roof space. I would put Insulation batts in first, this may mean that you have to remove the roof sheets. I would also use a reflective insulation blanket between the batts and the Metal and if you can create an air gap that has plenty of ventilation between the metal and the insulation,then that will let the heat disperse outside rather than radiate into your home.

    Hi mate Jono again , my roof that I'm building for my shed is 7.3 X 6m 15degree pitch and is a cathedral ceiling (exposed rafters with no ceiling joists ) will I need to install collar ties even though I don't have underpurlins or struts. Rafter size is 190x45 any help would be appreciated

    Hi Mate, as you are building what they call a "Non- Coupled Roof" collar ties are not required.

    If it is a gable roof you can beef up the size of the Ridge and turn it into a ridge beam and then prop it on the Gable Wall so it takes some of the load off the side walls.

    How do you work out the length of the gable verge plate?

  • @Buildsum

    @Buildsum

    4 жыл бұрын

    Hi Mark, i usually just measure it of the Pattern Rafter, the length from the long point to long point of the verge rafter is equal to the distance along the bottom of the rafter from the plumb cut at the ridge to the start of the level cut of the Birdsmouth. To calculate it you would have to work out the length of the Rafter and then minus the length of the hypotenuse of the Birdsmouth. Hope this helps

    Hi Mate, no not really, you need to have the Ridge in place to build the wall anyway and you need to line the top plates up with the underside of the rafter so that the outriggers will work so it easier to do this once the rafters are in.

    If it’s a cathedral/vaulted ceiling then yes it is easier and structurally better to build gable end walls all as one so that you have full length studs to sit your ridge on. Easy if you know how to calculate it all, which doesn’t actually take that long as much as people may argue it does.
