Roof Sheathing Flush With Fascia

Roof sheathing or decking is one of those elements.

Roof sheathing flush with fascia.

Since joists will be spaced on 16 or 24 inch centers 8 foot pieces of fascia work well. But if you snap it at 40 inches then the sheathing will not project over the subfascia or true fascia. The drip edge should be installed over a piece of 1 2 furring strip so that it stands off from the fascia or rafter tails. On the front of the roof edges the original roof deck sheathing was cut back flush with the wall and the fully adhered membrane folded down around the rafter tails to catch the wall water control layer and air control layer.

This soffit option will exceed your expectations when it comes to strength and aesthetics. In the u s roof sheathing is almost always composed of wood usually osb oriented strand board or plywood. Osb is lightweight relatively inexpensive and strong enough to resist bending or breaking should someone walk on the roof. View flush soffit panel.

Flush soffit concealed fasteners. Run fascia the thickness of the plywood higher than the fly rafter on the gable and flush on the sub fascia. This was then foamed to complete the air seal. Draw a full scale mockup and snap a line with fascia in kind.

Go back and check out photograph 10. Step 2 hold your first piece in place starting flush at one corner with the top edge of the board pushed tight against the bottom edge of the roof deck or flush with the tops of the joists. Chalk your line up the rake 48 from the point where fascia meets sub fascia. Nail thefurring strip to the fascia board near the fascia top tight under any extending of roof decking usually absent.

Flush soffit panels line up together for a modern minimalist look. Flush soffit works well as a subtle interior panel wall panel and as part of a roof venting system.
