STEP 30 - Roof Support:
Place a Roof Support (Y) against the Corner Posts tight
against the underside of the Roof Rafters. Mark the posi-
tion of the holes at the end the Roof Support on the Corner
Posts. Make a 3/8" diameter hole through the corner post at
each mark.
Fasten the Roof Support to the Corner Posts using
two 5/16 x 4" Hex Bolt Assemblies. Fasten the Roof Sup-
port (Y) to the Roof Block (Z) using two #10 x 2-1/2" Wood

Align Ridge Cap Part A (AD) overlapping Ridge Cap Part B
(AE) as shown at right. Ensure that the ends of the Ridge

Cap Part B. Leave the screw head flush to the surface of
Ridge Cap Part A.

STEP 29 - Fasten Ridge Cap to Roof:
Before putting the Ridge Cap in place, drill a series of 1/8" di-
ameter pilot holes through the top board of each roof panel.
The pilot holes should be at least 3" from the end of the roof
board and approximately 3/4" from the top edge. Space the
pilot holes every 10 to 12 inches.
Put the Ridge Cap in place at the peak of the roof, as shown.
The ends of the Ridge Cap should be flush with the ends of
the roof.
From inside the Gym, fasten the Ridge Cap using #8 x 1-1/4"
screws, through the pilot holes and into the Ridge Cap.
STEP 31 - Hole Caps:
Make a final check and make sure that all the bolts and
screws have been tightened.
Locate the 1" Hole Caps in the hardware bag. Install Hole
Caps into all the counter-bored holes to cover and protect
the hardware.
