Using corrugated metal also allows me to reduce the degree of slope or roof pitch needed to a mere 10 percent or a 1 to 10 pitch. Mauerlat must be. Use thru bolts for a solid and strong connection.

Install the 2 2x10 header beams to the notched 6x6 support posts. Place the first screw. This meant the patio cover could start at the edge of the house s roof at a height of eight feet and slope down to seven feet leaving a clearance of more than six and a half feet between the lowest part of the frame s headers and the ground at its outer edge. Using lag bolts and a screwdriver fasten the base of the posts to the ground.

In the lower end of the rafter leg cut out. Basically a slanted roof style is a flat roof tilted high up at one edge to create a very steep slope. Notice that the tops of the 6x6 support posts are notched to hold the header beam. Measure the sightline clearance height from the roof to the house not the other way around.

Be sure the larger edge is laid so that the small edge of the next panel will overlap it. Measure the size of the beam that you are going to use. You have to make. Install temporary bracing to keep the support posts level and in place.
