Sloped Roof - Slate Mounting Bracket
30mm clearance
The elbow of the bracket must give at least 30mm clearance from the
rafter to bend down the roof i.e the elbow should be no less than 30mm
deep and then can be made to work with shims (packing). Brackets with
clearance of 40/45mm from the rafter probably won’t need shims.
Shims (packaging) are used to lift the roof anchor/bracket away from the
slate underneath the bracket.
Any contact between the flashing and the roof anchor/bracket could
cause a problem.
