Straight Edge
Metal Truss Hanger
Soffit Board Flush With Siding
To prevent the nails from protruding
thought the bottom of the soffit board,
do not nail at an angle when nailing roof
sheathing to the soffit boards.
1. Place trusses over the 'X' marks and secure
trusses to 2x4 tie plate using 2x4 hangers and
1-1/2" hanger nails.
2. Locate 84" long soffit boards that have a beveled
edge. Install one of these boards flush with the
top of the siding and butting against the rear
gable trim. Secure soffit boards to the top wall
plate with 3" long screws. Cut to length and
install the last soffit board to fit behind 2x3
boards on the front gable.
Step 20 Install Trusses & Soffit Boards
1. Install a 42" x 96" OSB roof panel flush with
the face of the rear gable trim. Use a straight
edge to align the top of the sheathing with the
top of the truss. Continue adding sheathing
following the layout on the next page. Use
7d sinkers, spaced 12" apart.
2. Repeat step for opposite side.
Step 20 Install Roof Sheathing
Before installing the overhang to the
sidewall, use a straight edge to make
sure the trusses are align with the bevel
cut on the overhang board. Adjust up
or down if necessary.
