Gable roof. They are to join double rafters and joists at 400mm center holes. And to secure wallplate to a steel beam..

Maybe im ovee thinking it but if the joists are 44mm and the rafters are 40mm then somewhere itll end up out when its time to put the plasterboards on. Aloughth these joists are 40-44 mm and 218-225mm. When setting the floor level or of the wall plate its throwing my overall floor levels out...

If one has 9x2s for the joists and it is 44mm wide and 6x2s for rafters and its 40mm wide. Which one do you center of for the 600mm spacing.

O i know, best to follow the regs and stick to them. What im now curious about and cant swem to find any pics or videos online with it is tge actuual doubling up of them. If the two joists are side by side, do tge rafters be on the outer sides of these joists. Ive installed lots of trusses...

Builders yard exchanged the discoloured and damaged c16 6m lengtha for 6.6m c24 with slight discolour at the sides at no extra cost.. happy with this now.

Ill have to slightly adjust the spacing now for where i have triple rafters and joists as ill only be needing two together now instead. Do i need to double up for the ope for staircase or will i be ok with just a trimmer on the joist with joist hangers each side?

Add two plus the one was there or doubles i need instead of 3. I do have a few roofing books from years ago ill have to dig out. I seen this online and it caught my attention. Doubles with pieces in the center for even larger opes.

Yeah 9x2 doubles for 1200 i think but if its more of an ope, im near sure its to be triple although been getting conflicting advice. I dod do double trusses on my house build maby years ago for 1100mm dormer opes and one in center.

It depends on how much lead flashing is tucked up under the tiles and up to the ridge. Where it could leak is if theres not enough lead tucked up under and where the two different tiles meet. I can see the black tile slightly higher than the red tile, not inter locked correctly. This can...

Thoughts on how ill be constructing this roof. Below in pic is the spacing of the rafters and joist. Im going for 600mm spaing and will have 3 rafters each side of the opes tust will have 2x 780x980 veluxes together. Ive left a 1668mm ope for the double veluxes and can adjust to suit for...

Is it leaking? If ots juat the middle tile, i cant see any rain entering the building..

Will do (y) Would you hold on to this or change it. Going to go through it properly over the wknd.

This new 9x2 is 34% moisture content this 4x2 is 31% This 9x2 is 17% And the coloured timber is between 13-16% moisture content. And this is on the outside. Maybe inside timbers even less.

Whats the thinking its the best? was onto the sales rep and he agreed, looking at pics he said it shouldnt have been sent. Getting new 6x2s delivered. C16s. My 9x2 joists are c16s
