ok, could you please upload tomorrow. TY Yes i hear you, ply all over. The cheaper option would be to batten them out but structurally the ply would be stronger. I will have only a concrete lintel with cavity closer block under my wallplate. Do you think id get away with screwing one...

@noseall i just noticed youve used 4x2 for your bracing. Why this rather than 4x1

it will be slates

TY. Excellent pics! Have you any others? Ive erected many a trusses but never the raised tie type. Why is it theres no bracing on the legs. Ive noticed this on lots of information ive seen plus the truss diagram from the truss manufacturers pricing ive received. The peak will be 5.4 and...

Looking up information on the truss glide shoes used for when using raised tie trusses its saying it can be used on one side or both side of the trusses. HAs anyone any information on why it would only be used on one side. Ill be using these type trusses in my garage so would want to be certain...

Why you say 16.

There is no roof ladder on this roof. Here in Ireland (Donegal) the county councils are bringing back flush eaves on newbuilds which hasnt no overhang for soffits anymore. Same as the front!! I will purchase the extra truss if needed but wanted to find out if it is needed within the measurements.

what would be the norm?

i have a large opening in a garage thats 5m wide. Just an hour ago i got a phone call that theres 3 rsjs that where cut wrong that i can get for half price. They are 5.5m long. They are 100mm wide x 254mm high. They would support the small gable on top however would the 250mm each side be enough...

I will do it this week. What could it be though

The length of my roof will be 9.4m with a 100mm cavity between 2 100mm blocks. I will be using 600mm spacing on my trusses and from the both ends of the gable the trusses will be 50mm from the gable. When i take away the 600mm for my 2 cavity walls both sides then take away 50mm each end of my...

Have just noticed it these last few months. I got new spotlights wired into my kitchen, heat detectors etc,.. and i was thinking maybe it was something he electrician did.

The electric is overhead poles to a pole on my site, runs down the pole then underground to my electric box on the exterior wall.

Countryside house i live in also

no, wont have them near the house

Every few nights all the electric in my house cuts out for 1 sec then comes back on straight away. Its been doing this awhile now. No one is near any electrical appliances at the time. All lights, anything thats plugged in all seem to cut out for a split sec then come back on. Does anyone know...

Your saying, inside the i part of the RSJ, install some timber and shot fire some wire mesh over the underdiun of it then float with render.

I am looking for information on how to render over them. Surely there's a method since rsjs are used in rendered buildings

One issue that I have is how to install temporary screed timbers for tamping on for large areas without breaking through the radon barrier. If one has 150mm of concrete, the hychairs are raising the mesh up 75mm, then how does one set these screed timbers rails for tamping on without them...

If one is pouring a 7.5 x 11m garage floor in concrete 6inch thick with steel mesh, which is best so I can get a level floor. There will be block on 4 sides. Will it have to be split in 4 sections with timber with the one pour, tamp off the timbers then when setting, remove timbers then fill...
