End Columns
If your Homeshed is 5.4m or wider, attach the rear end
column (100mm or 150mm C-section) to the rear truss
with one M12x30mm hex head bolt as illustrated in
Figure 15.
Footings
Check the alignment of the walls visually or with a string
line. Pour the concrete footings around the column base
and allow 24 hours before removing any braces. If you
are fixing to a concrete slab, refer to the “Fixing to a
Concrete Slab” instructions.
Rear Wall Girts
Check the frame is square and level before fixing the rear
wall girts.
Fix three rear girt brackets (65x50x3mm) to both rear
columns with two 10x16mm self drilling screws as
illustrated in Figure 16.
Span three wall girts between each bracket and fix with
two 10x16mm self drilling screws through each flange
as shown in Figure 16.
REAR WALLS AND ROOF INSTALLATION
Figure 16
Bolt the rear wall girts to the end column with one
M12x30mm hex head bolt. The rear wall girts have been
pre-punched at the end column /girt intersection.
Purlins
Please Note:
Purlins will be supplied un-punched for
Homesheds with non-standard lengths or non-standard
bay spacings. Please refer to Table 1 on page 2 of this
installation guide for a list of standard Homeshed lengths
and bay spacings.
Ensure the Gable Homeshed is square. Position the roof
purlins across the rafters, match the pre-punched holes
(on standard Homesheds) and bolt into position.
Gable Wall Sheets
Before fixing the gable wall sheets, locate the
raking flashing so it sits on the edge of each purlin,
following the roof line. Screw the raking flashing to
each purlin with one 10x16mm self drilling screw.
Pan fix the gable wall sheets to the raking angle and
frame with 10x16mm self drilling screws as illustrated
in Figure 17.
