The roof boarding is already cut to the
correct length so that you only have to
lay the boards from front to back.
Begin at the front and align the
fi
rst
board
fl
ush at the front with the ridge/
centre purlin and the fascia board.
Make sure you align the board exactly
with the centre of the ridge purlin. This
is necessary to avoid protruding wood
at the ridge which would prevent the
mounting of the opposite boards.
Now nail the boards twice to the ridge/
centre purlin and the fascia board.
Lay the roof boarding all the way to
the back. Measure in regular intervals
to ensure that they are properly alig-
ned and that the spacing to the wall is
consistent. The backmost (
fi
nal) board
needs to be cut to size in most cases.
Afterwards, mount the remaining
boards on the other side as described
above.
Now mount the
gable boards
at the
front and back. Fix the gable boards
with screws to the roof boarding and
the ridge/centre purlin; the spacing
between the upper edge of the gable
board and the upper edge of the roof
boarding should be approx. 5-6 cm.
(It may help if you indicate the centre
on the ridge purlin with a pencil line.
This will keep you from unintentionally
exceeding the centre of the ridge pur-
lin.)
Mount the
fascia boards
with screws
to the roof boarding.
Make sure the upper edge of the board
does not extend beyond the roof boar-
ding.
