7.0 PERIMETER BRACKETS
Perimeter brackets are to be located at the internal join of
the gazebo fascia beams so the bottom face of the bracket
is in-line with the bottom of the lower groove in the beams
(Figure 27). Brackets are to be fastened to the gazebo
fascia beams using four 12x20 hex head screws through
the pre-drilled holes.

8.0 GAZEBO HIP RAFTERS
Having all the Perimeter Brackets in place will allow rafters
to be located. The two shorter rafters are to be positioned
closest to the end gable frame on either side. It is important
that rafters are firstly fixed at the apex, position rafters over
the apex bracket tabs so the cut face of the rafter is flush
with the face of the bracket.
Two 12x20 hex head screws are used to fix the rafter to the
tab with the first screw being located 20mm from the front
face of the bracket and the second 20mm from the first
screw (Figure 28). This process is repeated for the two
internal gazebo hip rafters.

With all gazebo rafters fixed at the apex they can be
fastened to the perimeter brackets. Fix rafters through the
base of the perimeter brackets using two 12x20 hex head
screws at a minimum spacing of 30mm. As a small
tolerance is allowed for at this bracket it is important that the
screws are located at least 20mm from the bracket edge
and the bottom edge of the rafter (Figure 29).
