Infill panels are fixed through the top groove of rafters andthe lower groove of the header beam with 8x35mm selfembedding teks. Fix at 500mm centres in non-cyclonicareas and 250mm centres in cyclonic areas. Panels arefixed to the end strut at the same spacings. Attach theheader flashing to the underside of the header beam with10x16 hex head screws to neatly finish the base of the infillpanels (Figure 49).

16.0 ATTACHING BARGE CAPPING

If barge capping is required at the opposite end to thegazebo, attach the barge cap by screwing the lower lip tothe rafter and rivet the top section to the deck, as shown inFigure 50. Mitre the barge at the apex of the gable for a neatfinish. Run the barge cap along the gable section to where itmeets the flat verandah deck and finish neatly.

17.0 HELPFUL TIPS

Leave plastic coating on members until they are about to befastened to the structure. This will help prevent scratchingof the colorbond finish.

Sweep the roof and clean gutters after the completion ofwork. Ensure any swarf and rivet stubs are removed as theycan cause unsightly rust stains.

Do not allow soil to remain in permanent contact with thecolumns, as corrosion will result in the base of the column.Refer to the “Selection, Use and Maintenance of StratcoSteel Products” brochure for complete details of themaintenance requirements.

Double check all measurements and drilling locationsbefore proceeding.

Regularly check framework for squareness and verticalalignment to make sure it hasn't moved during construction.

When attaching the decking to the gable, start from therear (non gazebo end) on one side of the gable. Fix thedeck to the angled backchannel at the ridge, and to thecapping at the valley beam.

If the deck of the flat roof section runs perpendicular tothe valley beams, align the ribs of the gable decking upwith the flat roof section.

At the point when less than one full sheet is required to passthe centreline of the end gable frame on one side, theOutback decking will need to be cut to suit.

Continue laying deck past the end gable frame (Section 1,Figure 42) and cut the sheeting to fit inside the Clearspantwo piece back channel. Cut sheeting to fit sections 2, 3, 4,and 5 and continue back down the side of the ClearspanGable.

Gutter around the gazebo end needs to be mitred. Cut30mm tabs in the gutter back lip at 1000mm intervals andfold back. Fix the gutter to the beam capping, through thetabs with rivets as shown in figure 39. Once decking isattached (Section 13.0). Fit gutter straps at maximum1000mm intervals, attaching to the top of the decking withrivets. Waterproof rivets with silicone. The same method isused where there is no flat roof adjacent the gable.

The gazebo end gutter will be at a higher level than the flatroof gutter. The lower gutter is notched if required at thepoint the gazebo gutter intersects allowing the gazebo endgutter to overlap and flow directly into the lower gutter(Figure 40).

Alternatively, the flat roof gutter and the gazebo end guttermay be kept mutually exclusive having gutter stop endssealing the gutters to keep them separate. Separatedownpipes will then be necessary.

All gutter joins are to be waterproofed with silicon.

Connect the gutter to the flat roof Outbacks as described in”. Flat

OPTIONAL EXTRAS

1.0 INTRODUCTION

2.0 ATTACHING TO AN EXISTINGSTRUCTURE

2.1ATTACHING ON SIDE TO HOUSE

Please read these assembly instructions thoroughly beforecommencing the construction. Double check alldimensions, levels and bolting locations before cutting,screwing or bolting structural members. It is recommendedthat the persons erecting the structure have had someprevious building experience, because some modificationsto the existing house structure are required.

The builder or council is to ensure the existinghouse/structure is of a suitable structural integrity andcomplies with all the relevant Australian Building codes andstandards. For more information regarding the suitability ofthe house structure to accommodate the Stratco AttachedClearspan Gable, consult a structural engineer or a buildingauthority. It is the builders responsibility to ensure that theexisting house roof structure is strengthened correctly.

Refer to section 2.1 if attaching Clearspan Gable on it’s sideto a house, section 2.2 if attaching on it’s end to a house orrefer to both sections if attaching the gable on it’s side andend.

A Stratco Clearspan attached on it’s side to a house isattached to the existing eaves overhang at the fascia.

The first objective in the construction is to fix a structuralside beam along the fascia or wall, to which the Gable Unitis attached.

Most existing houses have not been designed for theattachment of portal framed gables to their side, thereforeadditional strengthening of the house rafters must beperformed.

In order to strengthen the existing house rafters, the rooftiles or roof sheets need to be lifted, to expose the roofframe. Steel rafter brackets and channels are then boltedalong the house rafters. Refer to section 2.1.1.

A 150 mm Outba beam is bolted to the strengtheningbrackets at the fascia. Once the 150 attachment beam issecured to the house the Gable Unit can be erected andfastened to the beam.

The first step is to determine the number of rafters whichneed to be strengthened, and their location relative to theunit. You will have to lift some roof tiles or roof sheets todiscover the rafter positions and spacings. The number ofrafters which need to be strengthened is determined by thebuilder.

: It is the builders responsibility to ensure the existingrafters and fascia are adequately reinforced andstrengthened to accommodate any additional attachedstructure. The reinforcing method must be approved by theappropriate council and engineer.

Use an adjustable rafter strengthening bracket and onechannel for eaves overhangs up to 450 mm. Use anadjustable rafter strengthening bracket and two channelsfor eaves overhangs over 450 mm and up to and including600 mm, as shown in figure 4.

The adjustable rafter strengthening bracket is shown infigure 3. Please note that this bracket may not be suitablefor applications where the front face of the house gutter ishigher than 120 mm. In these cases please contact Stratcofor alternative solutions.

Fixing the 150Attachment Beam in Place

After fixing all the brackets and channels, the 150 beam isfixed in place.

Prop up the 150 beam in position with the double flange ontop, the beam will need to be located at a height on thebracket which allows clearance between the gable roofsheets and the gutter. Fix to the end plates of the rafterbracket using two M12 bolts, with the bolt head on the 150beam side. Insert spacers to prevent the beam fromcrushing, and bolt in position, using nuts and washers.

Do not over tighten bolts as this can lead to a visibleindentation due to the high gloss nature of the material.Refer to Figure 8 for fixing spacers.

Note:

Fixing Rafter Strengthening Brackets andChannels

The adjustable rafter strengthening bracket allows for anadjustment of pitch in the range of 15 to 30 degrees. Thedistance the bracket extends past the fascia is alsoadjustable to allow for standard gutters or box gutters with awidth of up to 200mm.

In conjunction with rafter strengthening brackets, channelsare fixed to the side of the house rafter (Figure 4). Thebottom end of the channel will be located at the base of thehouse rafter. Holes should be marked and pre-drilled in thechannels to suit the location of existing holes in the bracket.The channel will extend beyond the bracket so additionalholes are to be drilled in the channel at approximately500mm centres.

Initially the bracket T piece shall be fixed to the bracket armwith two M12 cup head bolts (hand tighten only), a springwasher is to be located between the standard M12 washerand nut (Figure 5). Mark the position of the bracket on thefascia and notch a rectangular hole in the fascia allowingthe bracket to be fed through the front of the fascia. The holemay need to be enlarged slightly if the M12 cup head boltsinterfere with the fascia.

Perimeter brackets are to be located at the internal join ofthe beam capping so the bottom face of the bracket is inlinewith the bottom edge of the upper groove in the beam(Figure 32). Brackets are to be fastened to the beamcapping using four 12x20 hex head screws through the pre-drilled holes. Note: Ensure the bottom screws fix throughinternal beam capping channel.

8.0 GAZEBO HIP RAFTERS

Having all the Perimeter Brackets in place will allowrafters to be located. The two shorter rafters are to bepositioned closest to the end gable frame on either side.It is important that rafters are firstly fixed at the apex,position rafters over the apex bracket tabs so the cut faceof the rafter is flush with the face of the bracket.

Two 12x20 hex head screws are used to fix the rafter tothe tab with the first screw being located 20mm from thefront face of the bracket and the second 20mm from thefirst screw (Figure 33). This process is repeated for thetwo internal gazebo hip rafters.

2.2ATTACHING ON END TO HOUSE

If fixing a Clearspan Gable on its end to a wall, twoalternatives are available. Ridge and valley beams arefixed directly to the wall using 150 beam to wall brackets.This option will not require a rear gable frame and backchannel is fixed to the wall to accommodate sheets runningalong the wall. The other alternative requires valley beamsbe fixed to the wall and a rear gable frame installed. Therear gable frame will need to be slightly offset from the wallto allow the appropriate bracket fixing.

If fixing a Clearspan Gable on its end with suspensionbrackets to a fascia (Figure 10) typically a soaker flashing isused. In this case the gable rafter at the rear of the unit is tobe 153mm from the house fascia in order to accommodatea standard soaker flashing (refer Figures 29 and 30).

6.2.1 SOAKER FLASHING

In the case of a rear infill panel, a soaker flashing is used toconceal the existing house gutter, waterproof the rear endof the gable and neatly finish the base of the infill panel(Figure 29).

The rear gable frame and header beam are positioned 153mm from the house fascia in order to accommodate thestandard soaker flashing which is optional with theOutback unit (Figure 30). The frame is fixed on the rearheader beam into gable beam brackets as detailed above.

Fix the standard soaker flashing into position on top of theback channel and underneath the gutter. Infill panels mustbe fixed with split tail soft pull rivets at 500mm centres aminimum of 20 mm above the pan of the soaker flashing.This will reduce the possibility of moisture being absorbedinto the sheet.

Refer section 15 for details of fixing infill panels to gableframes.

Note:

1. If your house gutter is wider than 150 mm a custom madesoaker flashing will need to be ordered to the requireddimensions. The rafter setback will need to be adjusted tosuit.

2. Do not form stop ends at either end of the soaker flashing.

3. Soaker flashing is not to come in contact with the base ofthe house gutter.

6.2.2 HEADER FLASHING

When a gable is fixed at the rear to an attachment beam,elevated to the existing house gutter height, typically aheader flashing is used in conjunction with the rear infill. Inthis case, the rear attachment beam is considered aheader, and along with the rear gable frame is fixed as closeas possible (within 5mm) to the existing gutter in order toaccommodate the header flashing. The gable frame is fixedon the rear header to gable beam brackets as previouslydescribed.

Fix the header flashing into position over the existing gutterlip with rivets. Infill panels are located behind the headerflashing and fixed with split tail soft pull rivets at 500mmcentres (Figure 31).

Note

If your house gutter is wider than 150mm a custommade soaker flashing will need to be ordered and the rafterset back adjusted to suit.

If fixing a Clearspan Gable on its end to an attachmentbeam, elevated to the existing house gutter height, theattachment beam is to be as close as possible (within 5mm)to the outside face of the gutter (Figure 31). The 150mmattachment beam is fixed to rafter strengthening bracketsas detailed in section 2.1.1.

: It is the builders responsibility to ensure the existingrafters and fascia are adequately reinforced andstrengthened to accommodate any additional attachedstructure. The reinforcing method must be approved by theappropriate council or engineer.

2.2.1 FASCIASTRENGTHENING

Steel fascia brackets are generally fastened at 1200mmcentres to fascia and rafters (Figure 10). It is the buildersresponsibility to determine the adequacy of the fascia andrafters and the frequency of brackets for each individualsituation.

3.0 GABLE FRAME ASSEMBLY

IMPORTANT:

Note:

Ensure that the double thickness portion isat the top when installing all beams and rafters.

The rafters are supplied pre-cut and drilled at theridge as shown in Figure 11.

6.2.1 SOAKER FLASHING

In the case of a rear infill panel, a soaker flashing is used toconceal the existing house gutter, waterproof the rear endof the gable and neatly finish the base of the infill panel(Figure 29).

The rear gable frame and header beam are positioned 153mm from the house fascia in order to accommodate thestandard soaker flashing which is optional with theOutback unit (Figure 30). The frame is fixed on the rearheader beam into gable beam brackets as detailed above.

Fix the standard soaker flashing into position on top of theback channel and underneath the gutter. Infill panels mustbe fixed with split tail soft pull rivets at 500mm centres aminimum of 20 mm above the pan of the soaker flashing.This will reduce the possibility of moisture being absorbedinto the sheet.

2. Do not form stop ends at either end of the soaker flashing.

3. Soaker flashing is not to come in contact with the base ofthe house gutter.

6.2.2 HEADER FLASHING

When a gable is fixed at the rear to an attachment beam,elevated to the existing house gutter height, typically aheader flashing is used in conjunction with the rear infill. Inthis case, the rear attachment beam is considered aheader, and along with the rear gable frame is fixed as closeas possible (within 5mm) to the existing gutter in order toaccommodate the header flashing. The gable frame is fixedon the rear header to gable beam brackets as previouslydescribed.

Fix the header flashing into position over the existing gutterlip with rivets. Infill panels are located behind the headerflashing and fixed with split tail soft pull rivets at 500mmcentres (Figure 31).

Ridge and valley beams arefixed directly to the wall using 150 beam to wall brackets.This option will not require a rear gable frame and backchannel is fixed to the wall to accommodate sheets runningalong the wall. The other alternative requires valley beamsbe fixed to the wall and a rear gable frame installed. Therear gable frame will need to be slightly offset from the wallto allow the appropriate bracket fixing.

If fixing a Clearspan Gable on its end with suspensionbrackets to a fascia (Figure 10) typically a soaker flashing isused. In this case the gable rafter at the rear of the unit is tobe 153mm from the house fascia in order to accommodatea standard soaker flashing (refer Figures 29 and 30).

Fixing the 150Attachment Beam in Place

After fixing all the brackets and channels, the 150 beam isfixed in place.

Prop up the 150 beam in position with the double flange ontop, the beam will need to be located at a height on thebracket which allows clearance between the gable roofsheets and the gutter. Fix to the end plates of the rafterbracket using two M12 bolts, with the bolt head on the 150beam side. Insert spacers to prevent the beam fromcrushing, and bolt in position, using nuts and washers.

Do not over tighten bolts as this can lead to a visibleindentation due to the high gloss nature of the material.Refer to Figure 8 for fixing spacers.

Note:

Fixing Rafter Strengthening Brackets andChannels

The adjustable rafter strengthening bracket allows for anadjustment of pitch in the range of 15 to 30 degrees. Thedistance the bracket extends past the fascia is alsoadjustable to allow for standard gutters or box gutters with awidth of up to 200mm.

In conjunction with rafter strengthening brackets, channelsare fixed to the side of the house rafter (Figure 4). Thebottom end of the channel will be located at the base of thehouse rafter. Holes should be marked and pre-drilled in thechannels to suit the location of existing holes in the bracket.The channel will extend beyond the bracket so additionalholes are to be drilled in the channel at approximately500mm centres.

Initially the bracket T piece shall be fixed to the bracket armwith two M12 cup head bolts (hand tighten only), a springwasher is to be located between the standard M12 washerand nut (Figure 5). Mark the position of the bracket on thefascia and notch a rectangular hole in the fascia allowingthe bracket to be fed through the front of the fascia. The holemay need to be enlarged slightly if the M12 cup head boltsinterfere with the fascia.

Insert the bracket through the fascia and fix with thechannel(s) to the house rafter using M12 hex head boltsthrough the existing holes in the bracket and further up thechannel(s) (Figure 7). Adjust the T piece so it is horizontaland has the appropriate extension past the fascia to allowfor fixing of the attachment beam. T piece connection boltsare to be tightened to a minimum 35Nm torque.

Fix the bracket as close to the base of the gutter as possible(recommended distance 10mm from lowest end of gutter),as shown in figure 6.

The 150 attachment beam is to be fixed to the end plate toensure the carport roof sheets drain into the existing housegutter (Figure 6).

Gutter around the gazebo end needs to be mitred. Cut30mm tabs in the gutter back lip at 1000mm intervals andfold back. Fix the gutter to the beam capping, through thetabs with rivets as shown in figure 39. Once decking isattached (Section 13.0). Fit gutter straps at maximum1000mm intervals, attaching to the top of the decking withrivets. Waterproof rivets with silicone. The same method isused where there is no flat roof adjacent the gable.

The gazebo end gutter will be at a higher level than the flatroof gutter. The lower gutter is notched if required at thepoint the gazebo gutter intersects allowing the gazebo endgutter to overlap and flow directly into the lower gutter(Figure 40).

Alternatively, the flat roof gutter and the gazebo end guttermay be kept mutually exclusive having gutter stop endssealing the gutters to keep them separate. Separatedownpipes will then be necessary.

All gutter joins are to be waterproofed with silicon.

Connect the gutter to the flat roof Outbacks as described in”. Flat

roof gutters need to end flush with the gable valley beamsand stop ends are fixed.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

2.0 ATTACHING TO AN EXISTINGSTRUCTURE

2.1ATTACHING ON SIDE TO HOUSE

Please read these assembly instructions thoroughly beforecommencing the construction. Double check alldimensions, levels and bolting locations before cutting,screwing or bolting structural members. It is recommendedthat the persons erecting the structure have had someprevious building experience, because some modificationsto the existing house structure are required.

The builder or council is to ensure the existinghouse/structure is of a suitable structural integrity andcomplies with all the relevant Australian Building codes andstandards. For more information regarding the suitability ofthe house structure to accommodate the Stratco AttachedClearspan Gable, consult a structural engineer or a buildingauthority. It is the builders responsibility to ensure that theexisting house roof structure is strengthened correctly.

Refer to section 2.1 if attaching Clearspan Gable on it’s sideto a house, section 2.2 if attaching on it’s end to a house orrefer to both sections if attaching the gable on it’s side andend.

A Stratco Clearspan attached on it’s side to a house isattached to the existing eaves overhang at the fascia.

The first objective in the construction is to fix a structuralside beam along the fascia or wall, to which the Gable Unitis attached.

Most existing houses have not been designed for theattachment of portal framed gables to their side, thereforeadditional strengthening of the house rafters must beperformed.

In order to strengthen the existing house rafters, the rooftiles or roof sheets need to be lifted, to expose the roofframe. Steel rafter brackets and channels are then boltedalong the house rafters. Refer to section 2.1.1.

A 150 mm Outba beam is bolted to the strengtheningbrackets at the fascia. Once the 150 attachment beam issecured to the house the Gable Unit can be erected andfastened to the beam.

The first step is to determine the number of rafters whichneed to be strengthened, and their location relative to theunit. You will have to lift some roof tiles or roof sheets todiscover the rafter positions and spacings. The number ofrafters which need to be strengthened is determined by thebuilder.

: It is the builders responsibility to ensure the existingrafters and fascia are adequately reinforced andstrengthened to accommodate any additional attachedstructure. The reinforcing method must be approved by theappropriate council and engineer.

Use an adjustable rafter strengthening bracket and onechannel for eaves overhangs up to 450 mm. Use anadjustable rafter strengthening bracket and two channelsfor eaves overhangs over 450 mm and up to and including600 mm, as shown in figure 4.

The adjustable rafter strengthening bracket is shown infigure 3. Please note that this bracket may not be suitablefor applications where the front face of the house gutter ishigher than 120 mm. In these cases please contact Stratcofor alternative solutions.

13.2 CLEARSPAN GABLE

13.3 GAZEBO END

When attaching the decking to the gable, start from therear (non gazebo end) on one side of the gable. Fix thedeck to the angled backchannel at the ridge, and to thecapping at the valley beam.

If the deck of the flat roof section runs perpendicular tothe valley beams, align the ribs of the gable decking upwith the flat roof section.

At the point when less than one full sheet is required to passthe centreline of the end gable frame on one side, theOutback decking will need to be cut to suit.

Continue laying deck past the end gable frame (Section 1,Figure 42) and cut the sheeting to fit inside the Clearspantwo piece back channel. Cut sheeting to fit sections 2, 3, 4,and 5 and continue back down the side of the ClearspanGable.

Outback

Sheets are to be taken down from the framework tobe cut. It is recommended sheeting is supported in ahorizontal plane off the ground at a comfortable height forcutting.

15.0 INFILL PANELS

Two styles of header flashings are available to neatly finishthe base of infill panels, one is used on header beams withgutter and the other for headers without gutter. Gable infillpanels are to be cut in triangular shapes to fit the end frame.Panels can be painted to the desired colour beforeinstalling.

End struts are fixed mid-span of the header to a headerbeam bracket at the base and an end strut plate at the ridge(Figure 47).

15.1 HEADER BEAM WITH GUTTER

Attach the header flashing to the rear gutter lip with rivets.Infill panels are fixed through the top groove of rafters andthe end strut with 8x35mm self embedding teks at 500mmcentres in non-cyclonic areas and 250mm centres incyclonic areas. Panels are fixed at the base through theheader flashing with split tail soft pull rivets at 500mmcentres (Figure 48).

Attach theheader flashing to the underside of the header beam with10x16 hex head screws to neatly finish the base of the infillpanels (Figure 49).

16.0 ATTACHING BARGE CAPPING

If barge capping is required at the opposite end to thegazebo, attach the barge cap by screwing the lower lip tothe rafter and rivet the top section to the deck, as shown inFigure 50. Mitre the barge at the apex of the gable for a neatfinish. Run the barge cap along the gable section to where itmeets the flat verandah deck and finish neatly.

17.0 HELPFUL TIPS

Leave plastic coating on members until they are about to befastened to the structure. This will help prevent scratchingof the colorbond finish.

Sweep the roof and clean gutters after the completion ofwork. Ensure any swarf and rivet stubs are removed as theycan cause unsightly rust stains.

Do not allow soil to remain in permanent contact with thecolumns, as corrosion will result in the base of the column.Refer to the “Selection, Use and Maintenance of StratcoSteel Products” brochure for complete details of themaintenance requirements.

Double check all measurements and drilling locationsbefore proceeding.

Regularly check framework for squareness and verticalalignment to make sure it hasn't moved during construction.
