Hello.
Since I don’t want any visible rafters or visible purlins on the outside of the gable, I am considering whether this can work.
The roof structure is "cold" the ceiling is insulated.
The text notes the following:
- Roof overhangs at the eaves in the main roof area with visible rafter ends without horizontal cladding (cornice).
- Eaves area with battens between the rafters (where technically possible).
- Roof overhangs at the gable without flying rafters and without visible purlins.
At some houses I have already seen, and at our shed I simply let the battens extend 30 cm beyond the plastered masonry and mounted a 3-layer board underneath.
The verge tile of the Frankfurt pan roof covered this without any problem, and I did not install a vertical batten.
The boards look unsightly after a few years and need to be painted, so I would not expose them directly to the weather.
But whether that is proper practice I do not know, I have often done it this way, but that does not mean it is correct.
Can it be executed like this?
Unfortunately I have no better picture, I took this one somewhere on the way today....
Regards
