For units attached on the end to a fascia, suspension
brackets are positioned at either side of the gable opening
at the spacing determined in section 3.0 (Figure 13). The
top tab of the suspension bracket must be located
between the fascia and back channel. A minimum of two
10x16 hex head screws are fixed through back channel,
suspension bracket and steel fascia while two 12x25 type
17 screws are used to fix through back channel,
suspension bracket and timber (Figure 17).
If back channel is not present, (ie, no adjacent flat
roof) locate washer plate behind steel fascia at
suspension bracket. Fix through bracket, fascia and plate.
The first valley beam is fastened into the suspension
bracket with 10x16 hex head screws through the dimples
while the opposite end is supported on adjustable
construction props.

If any intermediate columns are required measure the
valley beam marking where they meet. Fasten post
brackets as explained in the installation guide ‘Outback Flat
Attached Verandahs, Patios & Carports’ under “FRONT
FASCIA BEAM”. This can be done before valley beams are
fixed in place.
Support the second valley beam on adjustable construction
props but do not fix to the wall, fascia or attachment beam
until the front gable frame has been attached.
Fix the rafter to valley brackets to the valley beam at the
correct rafter positions (refer Section 6). Fixing details as
indicated in section 4.1.
Attach the in-line connector brackets back to back using
M10 bolts and nuts in the holes provided (Figure 19).
Ensure the constructed bracket makes the required
internal angle of 135 degrees.
Slide the in-line connector into the valley beam and fix
using two 12x20 hex head screws to the outside face of the
beam only. Fix one of the three Gazebo Fascia Beams to
the protruding half of the in-line connector using two 12x20
hex head screws to the outside face of the beam ensuring
both beams are flush with one another. Support the first
gazebo fascia beam on an adjustable construction prop.
Repeat the above process on the centre gazebo fascia
beam. Fix the remaining in-line connectors to the free ends
of the fascia and valley beams. The final gazebo fascia
beam is now be fixed in place.

Fix beam to beam brackets to the attachment beam
(header beam) with two 10x16 hex head screws so they
clamp the beam filler to the beam (Figure 18).
The first valley beam is fastened over the beam to beam
bracket with two 10x16 hex head screws either side while
the opposite end is supported on adjustable construction
props.
