    This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things czcams.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

    Noggins between the rafters inboard of the gable ladder stop the inside rafter from twisting. A small detail but well worth adding. They will also support steel strapping run over the top to act in tension against snow loads.

    Love the underneath line tip.
    Ive always struggled to get the feet perfect.
    Acceptable.
    But not perfect.
    I can always see any minor deviations.
    Especially on 400 centres.

    • @Ultimate-roofing-square.
      @Ultimate-roofing-square. Před rokem +1

      What doesn’t always help is plastic fascia. It can bend and bow even when the rafter feet are at 400 centres.

      @Daniel Cox 7" fascia. 18degree pitch roof. 6 metres long.
      I spent too long getting it as good as I could.
      The top was bang on.
      Used 9mm osb and 90mm plastic trim for the soffit.
      Used a chalk line and individually marked every rafter foot with a boat level. Was proud of it from the top
      But from underneath it looked slightly wiggly.
      Something only a tradesman could see.
      But I am a tradesman
      It bugged me.
      Had to leave it tho.
      I'd hammered the polytop nails home.

    In Scotland we would add a bellcast before fitting facia. This gives a more secure fixing for facia and gutter brackets. Snow load can push facia nails out if not.

    The author does like to from scratch, czcams.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

    excellent vid as always. i do gable ladders both ways like. picked up the second method of notching the rafter out of an american book years back which had stuff by larry haun in it. used it on a few roofs. i guess a combination of both maybe would be a good call.
    that bevel would deffo come in handy. id be buying one of those like. That line underneath tip ill have to try that out next time alongside the facia brackets i made that i blatantly copied of you from another of your videos.

    With the nogging that is cut into the rafter; will it make the bottom part of the rafter have to take up more forces in tension, or does the cut-out not afffect the compression of the rafter?

    These videos are brilliant, skilled trades explaining how things can be, should be, done. If I have only one comment about the videos that is a worry it is the lack of lung protection I see, I wish they would wear a mask, the tiny particles off the materials being worked can be truly nasty to your lungs; wood can trap some strange things within it as it grows and locks them in until someone cuts into it again and out they come. Be kind to yourselves, wear a good dust mask when working because the advice and skill you share is seriously useful and needs protecting.
