Step 14 – Fit Roof Sheeting
Lay the first sheet in position and ensure that the roof sheet is flush with the outside face of the
rafter on the high end. This edge of the rafter should be pan fixed using 10-16 wall screws to aid in
the fitting of barge capping. If the frame is square, the first sheet should now be flushed along the
length of the rafter. All other sheets may now be fixed at crest with the number of screws per sheet
at supports specified on the Engineering Plans. Ensure that roofing sheets are turned up at the high
end to prevent water running off this end.
Step 15 – Fit Gutters and Flashings
Remove plastic cover protecting gutters and flashings before they are fitted.
a)
Fit the cover flashing to the gutter end of the roof
b)
Fit the stop ends and nozzle to the guttering
c)
Fit gutter brackets to the cover flashing with pop rivets. Ensure the brackets are fitted with a
string line to the required fall location.
d)
Fit the gutter brackets into the gutter
e)
Fit side and head barge flashing and ensure that the bottom edge of the flashing is fixed to
the bottom lip of the C-Purlin with pop rivets.
Step 16 – Cut and fit downpipes
