Proper installation of truss installation with their own hands

erection truss structure refers to the initial objectives.It consists of the elements:

  5. Crate (base mount roof).

rafter system

is important to note: the rafters stacked several layers.It is necessary to firmly fix the rafters to avoid sagging or collapse of the roof.

Recommend first to construct reinforced concrete foundation at the top of the building structure.The function of the foundation - laying bricks firmly fix the wall and adjust the walls to the same height.The foundation must contain special rods with galvanized surface.They contribute to the tightly attached to the reinforced concrete mauerlat.Rods are matched in length mauerlat have a cross section 15/15 cm (permissible 20/20 centimeters).They play the role of a basis for truss installation.On the foundation laid plank waterproofing layer - roofing material (you can put several layers).
mauerlat fasteners made by myself with the help of bolts to the bars with galvanized nuts.

Type of material

Do not forget about the flat surface.Its measurement is level.

Note: If the structure of the roof with his hands is important to follow safety rules and follow a clear pattern drawing with all the details of the roof elements.With the arrangement
