Step 7.
Attach rafters to dual support beams and center beam with galvanized deck screws (3" x #8) at 45
degree angles to attach to the dual support beams. There are 8 screws used per rafter (2 per dual support beam).
Make sure each rafter's notches are snuggly into the dual support beams before adding the deck screws. The dual
support beams have lines marking the exact spot to attach the arched rafter. The interior rafters do not have
numbers. They are all cut identically and are interchangeable. Just make sure to stay to the markings on the dual
support beams to keep the spacing exactly the same (default rafter spacing is 24” on center unless custom ordered
differently). Start at one end and attach one rafter at a time from both sides and on both ends before moving to
the next rafter
.
And repeat the process in all Rafters.
Step 8.
Attach Tongue and groove boards to rafters with deck screws (1
5/8
" x #8).The tongue and groove
boards are all notched identically. The tongue and groove boards are notched to fit into each other. Place the
center board first (the board with groove on one side and angle on the other) and then the rest for both sides.
