STEP 49: SPACER BLOCK AND ROOF BOARDS
1: LOCATE TWO SPACER BLOCKS AS SHOWN BELOW. VERIFY THAT THE SPACER BLOCKS HAVE THE CORRECT 3-3/4"
DIMENSIONS SHOWN.
2: YOU WILL NEED SOME CLAMPS FOR THIS STEP. WE USE HAND OPERATED 2-1/2" SPRING CLAMPS. YOU CAN
PURCHASE THIS TYPE OF CLAMP FROM YOUR LOCAL HOME CENTER.
3: PLACE A SPACER BLOCK ON TOP OF THE ROOF BOARD YOU INSTALLED IN STEP 49. YOU WILL NEED A
SPACER BLOCK ON EACH END OF THE ROOF BOARD. MAKE SURE THE SPACER BLOCK IS FLUSH TO THE FRONT
EDGE OF THE ROOF BOARD THAT IS ALREADY INSTALLED. NOW CLAMP THE SPACER BLOCK TO THE ROOF
BOARD THAT IS ALREADY INSTALLED. REPEAT THIS PROCESS FOR THE SPACER BLOCK ON THE OTHER SIDE.
4: PLACE A 1 X 5 X 48-3/4" ROOF BOARD AGAINST THE SPACER BLOCK. NOW ATTACH THE ROOF BOARD TO THE
ROOF SUPPORTS WITH #8 X 2" WOOD SCREWS.
