April 13

  • measured the distance between the purlins for the raft wings to go under each purlin keeping it strong. top plate of the side frames we measured the space in between the raft wings and put nogs which were green treated timber in between them sticking side by side but above the top plate of the side frames. for the nogs sticking out of the front frame we used the pink treated timber because it was water resistant and was the correct treated timber to use. the sized nogs we used was 90mm. and then we used 4x4 nogs in between the rafts (view from the front) to keep the rafts from twisting and to give it that extra strength for the roof.
