BRACING FOR GABLE WALLS

Construction for the gable walls is similar to the non-gable wall.
1. Take two C2750 frame pieces for the gable wall, and partially box them together, 

do not tek screw 

yet

.

2. Place the unscrewed box section against the previously installed wall bracing and slide the two 
pieces apart until they make contact with it and the brace on the other wall. This is shown below.

3. Now the framing is at the correct length proceed to fix them together as per method described in 
BOXING FRAME SECTIONS.

4. Now boxed use tek screws to fix it to the gable wall from the outside of the shed. This is best done 
with two people.

Gable wall

Non-gable wall

Previously installed wall bracing on the left and 

new gable wall bracing on the right.

5. Use corner brackets (BKT10) to secure the rear, 
side and front wall braces together. Position as 
shown and fix using four tek screws. Pre-drilling 
the bracket with a 3mm drill bit will make this 
easier.

The other end of the same gable wall brace 

butting up against the other previously installed 

wall brace.
