Roof Ladder Blocking and Sub-fascia - Build a 20x30 Workshop

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

After the roof trusses have been installed its time to work on the sub fascia and the eve blocking. The eve blocking is also known as roof ladders. The gable end trusses are 3.5" lower than the other trusses. This allows the ladder blocking to connect to the last full size truss and extend over the eve. I also install sub fascia to the end of the trusses. This will give me an attachment point to connect the fascia. Lastly I connect each of the trusses with a 2x4 to ensure that the roof system is secure and strong.

    Fly(ing) rafters for the gable overhangs, squared up subfacia tied in, by far your the best roof framing ever. I'm learning a lot from this one.

    Great videos. You explain everything and we get to learn lots from you. We admire your efforts and time especially doing it alone. Be careful on the ladder ... we want more videos. Thanks

    Get ready for a lot of ladder time. Must have climbed up and down 2000 times.

    Thank you. Next is Roof OSB. A step that makes all the difference in getting the place weathered in.

    This is a fantastic series for me. I’m planning to build a 16x20 shop this summer. It’s instructive to see you doing it alone as I’ll be working alone too. I’m going to build my own trusses for an 8/12 roof. I plan to build the flying trusses in the shop which will avoid the slight angle problem you encountered. I think using the same jig I can hoist the assembled flying trusses in place. Thanks for these excellent videos.

    Thank you for watching. Building alone is a challenge at times but not impossible. Sounds like you have a great project ahead of you.

    Looking good, I was all set to start covering my roof OSB then realized my gutter apron and drip edge hung down too far over my subfascia and I wouldn't be able nail fascia....so off to Menard to grab LP smartside fascia trim. Got the first coat of paint drying on it now.

    any reason why not just use a power nailer ??? screwing everything in ???? isnt that faster ????? (i know screws are tighter etc etc but all conventional builders rely on power nailing with a framing nailer)

    The main reason that I did not use a power nailer is because I do not have one.
