Fram a roof on the ground.

Then it occurred to me that my crew and i could eliminate the danger and discomfort of framing and shingling a roof by doing everything on the ground. Simple cottage hip or gable roof would be faster to just frame in place. Start by marking the plumb line the horizontal line that marks where the wall will meet the rafter. Line up the square with the plumb line then rotate it 180 degrees realigning the square on the other side of the.

Frame roof on ground although they are close to the ground framing porch roofs on the ground is super convenient because you can do all the beam work too. Another way to stage it on the ground if your not going to frame anything in just preassemble packages is to take some joists and build a rim board floor to set them on. Each subsequent truss can then be hoisted into place installed and braced. Once the ground assembled roof component system is installed install ground bracing to the first truss in the system as outlined in b1.

I was more than a little excited by the idea. And they are really easy to set at least in the situations i ve experienced.
