This was a quick shed roof build to cover my air compressor and dust collection system.
It has been too cold to paint so I pre-assembled and painted as much as I could in the shop. Then brought the components out to build it as quickly as possible.
I think it went relatively well.

Use a Hammer Drill with anchors to the studs from the ledger board. The way its done building from scratch is anchoring the ledger board first. Then use hangers to tie in the rafters to the ledger board.

That was an awsome video and pretty informative for someone like myself who spent 24yrs in the Army and now when the wife asks I try my best to build or upgrade whatever portion of our home. I took a single story ranch that was made into an office building and re designed by taking the reception area out and making a walk in closet in the master as well as inclosing the front porch into the master bedroom adding about 4' to it and then on the opposite side of the walk in closet I made her I made a pantry the same size and made a barn door with rolling hardware for the pantry. Now I am thinking about putting a covered front porch on but am a little scared of the process if that makes sense? I was afraid to do the other things as well since my career was military and not construction but I love doing it. Any advice for the front porch?
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks Jim! Sounds like a fun and large project on your hands! It's tough to give advice on any given project because they can vary so much. I would say to start looking at other residential construction for reference. There is a lot to be learned from just looking at other structures. Also look for some books on basic framing. After you have a good understanding of the basic principles of framing you should have no trouble designing you covered porch.

I like the first part of how you got the roof up by yourself using the temporary legs as leverage. What a great technique. Is it standard in the US or is it building code for roofing structures to always have plywood followed by asphalt and shingles as your roofing system? I see this a lot in US building videos.
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 6 жыл бұрын
It's pretty common. There are other systems that meet code. But this is typical. For buildings where the underside doesn't show cosmetically We will often use O.S.B. sheets (oriented strand board) instead of plywood.

Nice build, so I understand, you got the pitch from cutting the beams inside the frame at and angle? Is it always advisable to build the frame first? I'm building a small version of this behind my garage so I can keep my motorcycle outside, Can you advise me on what I should use as support beams when its just sitting on the ground and not attached to a concrete base like yours?
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 4 жыл бұрын
If it's smaller than my project a 4x6 beam should do. As for the footings you could probably use a couple of pier blocks or dig and pour them. Building the frame first is not necessary. If your existing structure is irregular it my be better to cut each rafter to fit. Good luck and be safe!

I was wondering if the support posts could be positioned more to the corners of the roof? I was thinking of using wrought iron posts to make corners? Wondering if it's a stability thing where the posts should be placed.
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 3 жыл бұрын
I put the posts in a location that I thought would look pleasing and match the construction of the rest of the building. As long as your beam is strong enough to handle the load in the span of your application it should fine to install them located at the ends of the beam. I didn't use knee braces from the posts to the beam in my application because the roof was so small and I it seemed to me that the plywood provided enough triangulation. But if your application doesn't have a the same strength then knee braces might be necessary. Also, remember that I don't have any more information about your application than what is in your comment. So, it is tough to make any kind of determination as to what will be safe. It's best to follow local building codes because there may be seismic and wind considerations that will play a role in the safety of you structure.

@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 2 жыл бұрын
This roof was about 15 degrees. But on a shed roof it can be whatever you want it to be. You could even hold a stick of lumber at the slope you wanted and use a level to draw a plumb ( vertical ) line at the end. Then you could use a speed square or framing square to get the angle and proceed to copy it over to all of the rest of the rafters. As long as it looks good to you and the rafters are all the same it's fine.

@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify Жыл бұрын
In my situation there was a ledger board that already had flashing. So, I built the roof just under the flashing to allow the roofing to slide under. If you have just a wall then you may have to cut a slot to install the flashing. But I have seen people install "L" shaped flashing against the wall and seal it with a good sealant. Then a trim is installed over the flashing on the wall, and the top of the trim is sealed too.

@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks! In my case there was flashing on top of the tan ledger that was on the existing building. So I tucked the shingles under. But it depends on your circumstance as to whether you need flashing or not. I don't get much snow where I live but a lot of rain in the winter. My porch roof is kind of tucked up under another eave which protects the new porch roof connection to the building. It really doesn't get a lot of rain up by the connection. I only flashed it because I could. If you need to flash yours, sometimes you can cut a slot in the existing building and install a flashing that comes straight out and bends down at the slope of your roof. This requires that you seal the flashing to the existing building with a good sealant. Vulkem High-Performance Polyurethane is great for this. It's paintable too, which is better than silicone.

Did you let the roof walk of forwards? It looks like it but when you make the deck how mutch did you cut 1 side of the beams? 5° of 10°

So I don't need to cut birdsmouths? I want to add a porch to my two story and there's already a ledger board because it has a little one foot roof. I'm taking it out to ten feet. I was gonna cut one rafter and copy it then build it one by one. I may try it similar to this if I can figure it out.
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 2 жыл бұрын
If you look closely near the beginning of the video you can see that I cut birdsmouths into all the rafters. However, in some cases, you can skip cutting birdsmouths, usually on shallow sloped roofs. It really depends on the circumstances.

Here are the dimensions of this roof: 2x6 rafters (about 4' span), --- probably could span 8' 4x4 posts, 4x6 beam (about 8' span), 2x6 ledger(fastened 2 screws every 2') Roof pitch is 3/12. In other words it rises 3" for every 12" of run.

Great video. How do you go about setting out a porch roof when all you have is width and length of the run? Just wondered how you work out the header plate to the height of the posts. I’m starting from a header plate and unsure how to work out what the post heights should be. It’s going to be a 5 degree pitch with rafters with a plastic corrugated roof. 👍🏼 Thank you
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 3 жыл бұрын
A 1/12 slope is almost 5 degrees. So, that would be one inch of rise for every 12 inches of run. For example, if the outside of the support beam (the side farthest away from the building) is 48 inches from the wall then the roof will climb (rise) 4 inches relative to the beam. If you have a tail beyond the beam it will fall and the same rate and it must be calculated by using the run of the eave and the added to the total rafter length.
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 3 жыл бұрын
So the basic formula would be, the slope as a fraction times the run of the structure (1/12 slope ~ 5 degrees). Example: ------> 1 / 12 * (RUN in inches) = (RISE in inches). So let's say you have a 5 foot run or 60 inches. This is what it would look like: 1" / 12" * 60" = 5". Here's another example without an easy RUN distance: 1" / 12" * 121.75" = 10.14" (RISE of about 10" - 1/8" ). It's important to remember that this is only the distance from the wall of the existing structure to the outside of the support beam/wall. If there is a ledger on the wall then it's thickness has to be accounted for. Also, if there is an eave beyond the support wall/beam you have to account for that.
