Align the Roof Purlin(
s
) (
No.

) into the cut out slots on each
gable top ensuring each purlin
interlocks the boards.
Secure the purlins at each
end by screwing through the purlins
into the boards (
ensure to pre-drill
to avoid the boards splitting
) using
4x70mm screws per purlin.
*Please note:
The gable shown is for

Place the first two roof board’s
(
No.39
) onto the log cabin on each side,
making sure the boards are flush to the
end of the roof purlin. Once in position fix
to each purlin using 3x40mm screws.
Ensure the roof boards are not laid too
close together, use the spacers
(No.45)
provided to create a 2mm gap. Adjusting
the spacing between the boards allows the
wood to swell in damp weather.
Continue adding the roof boards along the
roof, fixing each one into position using
3x40mm screws, making sure that each
board is interlocked, flush at the bottom &
meet at the top of the apex.
You have been issued with 64 roof boards,
however you may only need to use 62.
*Ensure the roof boards meet at the top
of the apex and leave an overhang at the
bottom.
The last board on each side will
overhang past the end of the purlins:
Using a straight edge and a pencil mark
out a line as a guide.
Cut along the pencil mark and remove the
excess. Place the cut down board’s back
onto the roof and secure into place using
3x40mm screws per board.
*Please Note:
This image is for
illustrative purposes and may differ from
your choice in product.
Nevertheless the process of cutting and
fitting the last roof boards is the same.
