RAFTER SPACING INSTALL
This may be a problem for you if you have a closed soffit, you have to be able to get into the back side of your fascia to install this clip or you will not be able to meet engineering and obtain a permit. This clip is commonly known as an A-34 clip, you will have to purchase this locally for very little expense at any Home Center. Note: When attaching to the fascia you will need to place a 90 Degree clip from the rafter to the fascia board. When you measure this do not follow the angle of the rafter, you will want to measure straight out from the wall using a level. Rafter Size: Measure the width and height of your rafter, usually rafters are either 2" x 4" or 2" x 6".Įave Projection: This is the distance out from the wall to the outside of the fascia board. Rafter Spacing on Center: Measure from the outside of one rafter to the inside of the next rafter to get your spacing on center usually rafters are spaced every 16 or 24 inches. The spacing of roof rafters is just one of the components used to determine the minimum size of the roof rafter. For instance, Douglas fir is the standard wood rafter material in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada.
These standard rafter spacing measurements apply to standard roofing projects. However, you can also space your roof rafters 12 inches or 19.2 inches on-center. The extra weight added by the structure may be too much for your eave to hold. The standard roof rafter spacing is 16 inches or 24 inches on-center. If you are going to be attaching your awning to the eave / fascia then you will need to take three (3) measurements for us to let you know if the engineering will work so you can obtain a permit. You will want to order an awning with an 8' projection to obtain a total distance away from the wall (not Fascia) of 10'. Say you measured your Eave/Fascia projection and came up with 2' in projection. To measure properly you would measure from the outside of your fascia board to the end of the slab. Do not include the Eave/Fascia projection on your house, only measure from the point where the Awning will be attached to, Eave/Fascia attachments should be measured from the outside of the Fascia board.įor example: You want to attach to your Eave/Fascia of your house and have a 10' slab coming from the wall and you want to cover the entire 10' of slab. Note: If you are attaching to your Fascia only measure the area that the awning will be covering.
