Principle
Once the roof trusses and rafters have been assembled the metal fascia is then installed, ready for the gutter to be added. The rafter brackets have been specially designed to aid quick assembly, with slots for both horizontal and vertical adjustment, as well as holes for screwing to timber and metal rafters. It is not necessary to cut the end of the rafters.
Recommended Fasteners
Brackets to timber rafters: no. 6 x 25 bugle head type 17 self drilling screws. For steel 10 x 16 teks minimum 3 fasteners per bracket are required.
Fascia
Work on each straight run in turn.
Fascia Cover is used to cover old timber fascia and is simply placed over the timber fascia and fixed with a pan head screw at each rafter. The same accessories as for barge and can be used to finish off.
Steeline Metal Fascia is installed exactly level and the height and distance from the wall can be adjusted so that standard width soffit lining can be used without any trimming. The groove in the rear of the metal fascia is used to retain the outer edge of the soffit lining, and thus there is no trim piece required.
Install barge in a similar manner to fascia, except the brackets are bent at right angles along the line of slots. In this case, all brackets are fixed on and the barge sprung on last. Methods of fixing barge are as follows.
Cut both ends of the barge at an angle to suit the pitch of the roof. A barge mitre is used to finish the joint between the barge and the fascia. At the roof apex, the 2 barge lengths are joined by leaving a flange on one which inserts into the other and is secured by blind rivets.
Joining Sleeves
Slide one end of the internal joining sleeve into one length and then slide the second length over the other end. The external joining sleeve is then used to cover the join.
Fascia Corners
The internal mitre and internal mitre angle are used to form internal corner joints and are fixed with blind rivets. External corners can also be made using the external mitre. Alternatively, mitre the length of fascia/barge, bend to 90o and secure with blind rivets. MAXIMUM SUPPORT SPACINGS (NON-CYCLONIC)
Metal fascia shall be supported by a bracket at every rafter, or at a maximum of 1200mm between brackets.
