Greetings and welcome to "All About the Roof," your one-stop shop for anything roof- and roofing-related. In order to guarantee the longevity and stability of your roof structure, we will discuss the vital subject of Rigel fastening to rafters in this article.
Exactness and the right method are essential when fastening rigels to rafters. Horizontal beams called rigels, sometimes referred to as purlins, serve as structural supports and aid in equally distributing the weight of the roof across the rafters. The roof will be able to endure the weather and hold up over time if they are firmly fastened to the rafters.
There are several important steps involved in fastening rigels. Prior to anything else, the locations where the rigels will be fastened to the rafters must be precisely measured and marked. The overall stability of the roof structure depends on the rigels being installed with proper spacing and alignment, which is ensured by this step.
Selecting the suitable fasteners comes next after the positions have been marked. Depending on what kind of material is used for the rafters and rigels, common fastening techniques include screws and nails. It’s critical to choose fasteners that are appropriate for outdoor use and resilient to local weather conditions.
The rigels are then firmly fastened to the rafters in accordance with local building codes and manufacturer’s instructions after the fasteners have been chosen. Typically, this procedure entails driving the fasteners into the rafters through the rigels to guarantee a tight fit that will not shift or move over time.
The structural integrity of the roof is improved, and it also becomes more resilient to different weather conditions and lasts longer when ribels are fastened to rafters correctly. It’s an essential component of roof construction that calls for meticulous attention to detail and adherence to building and safety standards best practices.

DIY frame house. The roof of the frame house
This installment of the "DIY Hand Frame House" cycle will focus on building the roof. We will ascertain the appropriate construction stage for you to build the frame house’s roof yourself. We’ll examine how to properly select the rafters for a frame house, what kind of roofing material to use, and how to insulate the roof. A list of the tools required to erect the roof of the frame house will be provided, along with some consideration given to the intricacies of the roof installation.
What to pay attention to before starting the construction of the roof of the frame house
Because the roofing structure is heavy, it should be supported by the house’s finished walls. In our instance, these are ready when the frame’s vertical racks are put in place, secured with constant bonds, linked by the upper strapping breeze, and lined with two OSB sides. The OSB sheathing is positioned in the center of the upper binding. A roof structure can be supported by such a sturdy frame. External and interior decorative wall cladding is typically installed following roof installation. Additionally, wall cladding is completed before the overlook of overhangs (pediment and cornice).
Overhanging pediment. Carnish overhang.
In the event that the roof design calls for pediments, those are typically constructed and covered in OSB sheets prior to roof assembly. As a result, it is best to determine the roof’s slope before building the pediments, as this will determine the pediment’s upper line (more on selecting the roof blade will be discussed a little later). A pediment may be built parallel to the roof, but it must be installed at least after the extreme rafter farms are installed. Securely fasten the farms with braces at the same time.
In addition to the pediments, low walls made from the overhangs will be constructed if the attic floor is below the attic roof; therefore, these walls must also be constructed and lined with OSB prior to the roof assembly.
The main frame of the first floor is connected to the principal elements of the pediment and these low walls using the same section, step, principle, and method. Visit these articles to learn more about this:
You must install an upper binding beam at the top of each of the attic floor’s four small walls, including the ones where a pediment is intended to be built. Above this strapping, the pediment keeps building until it reaches the appropriate height. In this instance, the upper binding beam will have the same cross-section as the upper binding beam of the first floor. He will also carry out the role of the Mauerlat by supporting the rafters.
What you need to decide before the construction of the roof
Select a roof configuration.
We examine a 6 x 8 m house in this piece, as we do throughout the entire "DIY Hand Frame House" cycle of articles.
We previously (in earlier articles) chose the cross-sectional components of the frame that are listed below:
The floor beams are 180 x 130 mm with a step of 600 mm, and the upper binding beam measures 100 x 150 mm, connecting the frame’s vertical racks at the top.
To construct the roof, we must determine the number of slopes, the angle of the slope, the roofing material, and the sections and step of the primary roof components (rafters, crate, counterparty). Let’s get more specific about each point.
The more complicated the roof, the as a rule it looks more beautiful. But at the same time, it automatically becomes more expensive. The optimal number of slopes in terms of beauty and cost, in our opinion, are two slopes. One slope looks boring, and 4-slot (honeycomb or valme) will cost more. The attic (holm and semi -wax) roof we will not disassemble in this article either. Let us dwell on a gable roof, which is suitable for both the cold attic and for the attic floor (provided that the walls of the attic floor are at least 1.5 meters, and the slope of the slopes is not more than 45 °). There is only one horse in a gable roof and there are no yendes. Which is also a plus, since Yendov and the horse are the most vulnerable, and therefore the most difficult in the arrangement, places of roofing.
The roof type selection for the frame house
The allowable slope of the slopes is determined by the type of roofing. Since every roofing material has a recommended slope range that must be followed in order for the material to be installed safely. In other words, it won’t crawl and won’t let the snow accumulate longer than it should. D. It is sometimes possible to lay it on a slope that is different from the one suggested in the recommended range, but only if specific modifications are made to the roof design. Examples of these modifications include adding more waterproofing, laying the crate more frequently, replacing the shedding with continuous flooring, and fastening the roof material more frequently. P. I’ll list the acceptable slopes for the most common types of roofing materials:
- Cement-sand and ceramic tiles-25-60 °;
- Polymer-sand tiles-20-60 °, a smaller angle is allowed when the crate is strengthened;
- bitumen tiles – from 12 ° (the maximum slope is not limited);
- metal tiles – from 20 °, a slope of 15 ° is allowed, subject to sealing the joints of the metal tile;
- corrugated board – from 10 °;
- asbestos-cement sheets (slate)-12-60 °;
- Bitumen wavy sheet (aka Euro -shifer, bitumen slate, ondulin) – from 15 °, a slope of 10 ° is allowed when the crate is strengthened and from 5 ° when replacing the crate with a continuous flooring.
For the purposes of this example, we’ll settle on bitumen slate, which is the most widely used roofing material in low-cost construction. It is lightweight, attractive, and reasonably priced, making it a crucial component of budget construction. Our experience with this material from various manufacturers only allows us to conclude that it fades (burns out) uniformly after a few years. However, there were no complaints other than the color (burnout) with appropriate styling on this material.
A roof is classified as flat if its slope is no more than five degrees; a pitched roof has a slope greater than five degrees. When a pitched roof slope is less than 28 degrees, it is deemed loaded, and the components supporting it must meet stricter specifications. Because of this, rafters with a slope of less than 28 degrees need to be stronger because the amount of snow increases dramatically (snow slides off the roof poorly and mostly stays on the roofing). Additionally, wind loads rise at slopes greater than fifty degrees.
Thus, 35–45° is the ideal slope in terms of loads. the same bias and appears to be most beneficial on the outside. The roof is not too gentle nor too sharp at the same time. We’ll stay on a 45° incline.
So, At the house of 6×8 m, we will have a gable roof with a slope of 45 degrees, covered with bitumen slate. We also accept that under the roof we will have a residential heated attic floor. The walls of the attic floor are raised by 1.1-1.6 m. This height depends on your requirements for comfort. But 1.1 m is a minimum in order to make it convenient to operate a subcutaneous space. With this height of the walls under the ramp in the lowest place, for example, you can place a berth or cabinet. If you have a cold attic, then the roof design will be the same, only it will not be insulated (the floor of the attic will be insulated) and the walls do not need to be lifted by 1.1-1.6 m.
Diagram of the roof of a frame house
We will now choose the roofing plan. Do you require any more runs, puffs, sockets, crossbars, etc.? It will be possible to select the cross-sectional sections of each element and determine the quantity of lumber following the scheme’s final determination.
A roof shaped like the letter "A" is appropriate for a 6 by 8 m home. Rafferts and a crossbar (also known as a puff, a cross member, a jumper, a bow, etc.) make up this structure.
The roof design shaped like the letter "A."
Cross-section of the frame house’s rafters
We will insulate our roof if we choose the option with a residential attic. As a result, when choosing the rafters’ cross section, care must be taken to ensure that the insulation is positioned between them at different heights. Generally speaking, the roof calculation indicates that 100 to 150 mm (and rarely more than 150 mm) of insulation are needed. In terms of height, this insulation should fit in between the rafters.
The estimated insulation thicknesses in pitched roofs for a few major cities are provided below:
109 mm for Sevastopol;
Yekaterinburg: 140 millimeters;
In the event that a computation of up to 100 mm is needed, the rafter section may even measure 100 by 50 mm. Nevertheless, such a small section of the rafters must be calculated for each unique case (whether they can withstand the snow load specifically for your region, what should be their step and t.D.). We perform this computation. Without doing any math, we advise taking a slightly reinsured approach and using rafters with a section of 150×50 mm, even with insulation up to 100 mm thick.
The rafters measure 150×50 to 150×70 mm if the insulation is between 100 and 150 mm. Increasing the smaller side (between 50 and 70 mm) is pointless because the square cannot support the same weight as the rectangle. The section with all of the channels and helters is one illustration of this.
The rafters are 200×70 mm if the insulation is more than 150 mm.
Consider the 150 x 50 mm rafters for our example.
The frame house’s rafters’ overall length
I will then go over one choice for choosing the rafters’ length. In practice, we employ it. It is particularly appropriate if you are unsure about the future roof’s slope because you cannot be certain how a particular angle will appear in practice.
We take two long rails, usually six meters long, and use a nail shaped like the letter "l" to knock them down on one side. Our trial rafter farm will be located here. Without lifting to the location of the future roof, knock down on the ground.
In addition, we set up a trial crossbar, which is a long rail that we will measure the desired length of and fasten to trial rafters at the proper level.
Raise them up to the roof, then place our letter "l" on the upper binding’s beam. We are now attempting to alter the angle as the rafters’ length varies. The ideal slope angle is chosen by us. The length of the rafters as a result can then be measured. The length ought to account for the rafters’ 30- to 55-cm overhang "for" the wall. We receive a rafters sample.
Keep in mind that the overhang shields the windows and house walls from atmospheric precipitation. The overhang standards stipulate that there should be at least 50 cm if an organized drain from the roof (drainage system in the form of gutters and pipes) is not intended to be installed for the first time or will not be installed at all. Even though it is not a good idea to do 50 cm over 50 cm, it looks very nice and will protect your walls better if there is a drainage system.
The only thing, with this selection of the length of the rafters, it must be borne in mind that after installation they will “sit” on Mauerlat 5 cm below. Since the rafters must be cut into the Mauerlat for greater stability of the connection. In each rafter, a triangle with approximate dimensions of 5×5 – 5×6 cm with a section of rafters is 150×50 cm is cut out at the place of support for the Mauerlat. If your cross section is different, then the side of such a triangle will be approximately equal to 1/3 of the height of the rafters. Such a rafter planting does not affect the selection of the angle of the roof slope and the length of the rafters. Just visually after the installation of the rafters will be below approximately 5 cm. Plus, trying on the rafters, you need to mark on the bottom of the rafter the place of support for the rafters on the Mauerlat and conduct a vertical up from it. It will be one of the sides of our triangle. The second can be finished already on the ground, at an angle of 90 degrees by the first.
Mowerlat rafter.
The crossbar’s length is also measured at this point; further details are provided below.
Step of the frame house’s rafters
The step of the rafters depends on their cross section, as well as on the size and slope of the slopes. As you know, there are a lot of options for various combinations of these parameters, so I can not prescribe all the possible options for a step of rafters for different sections, slope and sizes of the slope. In our example, the rafters have a section of 150×50 mm, house 6×8 m, a slope of 45 degrees. And for this option, a suitable step of rafters is 70-80 cm. If you have approximately the same parameters, then a step 70-80 cm will suit you too. If the parameters are different, then ask and we will select a step specifically for your case.
Note: Since the width of a rolling roll is typically precisely 60 cm, it is sometimes recommended for insulated roofs to take a step of the rafters equal to 60 cm, thereby eliminating the need for cutting the insulation. We do not recommend modifying the insulation because doing so will result in more rafters—for example, 18 rafters instead of 12—because you are decreasing the rafters’ step. The roof structure weighs a significant amount. Overloading the foundation and walls. The insulation can be easily cut to the appropriate stepal step with ease.
The analysis of the rafters’ cross section, length, step, and size of the supporting cut (triangle) for supporting the rafters on Mauerlat has already been completed. They also disassembled a sample rafter preparation.
We now apply a sample of the rafters, which are already on the ground, to the bars that will hold the remaining rafters, try them on, outline them, and cut them to the appropriate length. Thus, we start preparing the number of rafters required for the full roof right away.
It should be noted that there should only be one sample, and the first (and only) model should be used for all subsequent rafter measurements. Inaccuracy will build up and become intolerably large if you measure the second rafter on the first, the third on the second, the fourth on the third, etc.D. For instance, with ten rafters, the error will be two centimeters even if each rafter is only 2 mm longer or shorter than the preceding one. T. e. There will be a 2 cm difference in the length of the first and last rafters.
The crossbar should be placed as low as possible, but not lower than the ceiling of the first floor is planned. The lower the crossbar is located, the better it perceives the spacer and if the crossbar is fixed high, it will not fulfill its function. We will select the minimum height of the location of the crossbar for our example. 2.1 m only the height of the entrance doors (if the crossbar is lower, then the doors will not fit). Plus about 10-20 cm (0.1-0.2 m) above the door and about 5 cm (0.05 m) finishing material of the ceiling. Total we get 2.25-2.35 m. This is the minimum distance from Rigel to the top of the final floor at the height of the doors 2.1 m. If you find doors 2.0 m high, then the crossbar can be placed even lower, at an altitude of 2.15-2.25 m from the top of the final floor. It is also important to remember that the smaller the cubature of air in the attic, the less heat it will be necessary to spend it on heating. This can also be attributed to the pluses of low selection of the crossbar.
Naturally, the standards state that residential buildings’ ceilings must be at least 2.5 meters high. However, 2.15-2.35 m is definitely appropriate for sleeping rooms—that is, if your growth permits it:-).
Rigel is taken using a 50 x 150 mm section. i.e. the area where the rafters are. As a result, there is no confusion when placing an order for a tree at a sawmill, and any leftover rafter residue can be turned into a crossbar.
The rafters’ step and Rigel’s step are identical. T.e. In this instance, 70–80 cm.
It offers the roof structure’s upper ventilation gap. Whether the roof is insulated or not, waterproofing needs to be installed, and there are two ventilation gaps with a height difference of 2-4 cm each:
- lower venturezor – under waterproofing (for weathering condensate, which can accumulate on the inner surface of the waterproofing with increasing humidity in the room). On the lower clearance, you can see in more detail in the commentary;
- The upper venturezor is over waterproofing (for weathering condensate, which can accumulate on the inner surface of the roofing material).
Furthermore, the regular functioning of the wooden components of the roof is attributed to these two ventilations. Additionally, there’s a good chance that the wooden components will mold, bloom, or cover the fungus if there’s even one missing gap.
The counterparty is responsible for ensuring the upper ventilation gap. The rafters are where it is fastened. 20 x 50 mm cross section (20 is height). Considering that the counterpart is fastened along the rafters (for every rafter), the step is equivalent to the stepal step (70–80 cm in our example).
Get in touch and crate
The roofing material affects the crate’s step and cross-section. It is attached to roof material, bitumen slate in our case. Additionally, it stabilizes rafter farms. The bitumen slate crate’s cross-section measures 40×50 mm, with a step of 35 cm.
The crate’s length is arranged so that an overhang (departure) of 20 to 50 cm is available for extremely long rafters. The overhanging crate is frequently constructed in the same way as the overhanging rafters, which are the outside walls’ rafters that diverge. Thus, the overhang is typically made 50 cm, for instance, if the overhanging rafters are 50 cm. It is more practical to fix the crate by doing the overweight to do a little bit more, then cutting off the excess. You can use an unreasonable board to save as a crate.
Once the primary specifications for each roof element have been determined, you can place an order for a forest. When placing an order, keep in mind that standard length pillars are always more profitable to order—even if they are longer than what you require—and that leftover material will always find a use in the building of frame houses.
You can buy the forest either dried or not. They still say, "We advise taking the unsteady"—wet. The dried forest is typically used for furniture, lining, etc. because it is very costly. P. Additionally, a dried forest now costs a square meter as opposed to a cubic meter. The standard, non-dried forest that can be bought from a sawmill is appropriate for the roof. The most important thing is that the fungus has not affected the tree, as evidenced by its gray exterior. In addition, you have to remove all of the bark from a tree to prevent the bark beetle from starting.
A combination antiseptic treatment is required for all lumber. This can be completed prior to assembly: soak, let dry for a few hours, and then mount right away to prevent the tree from falling. Learn in-depth instructions on how to apply an antiseptic to a tree on your own. Alternatively, mount right away and use maclovor to impregnate the roof already. While this method is undoubtedly simpler, in this instance the internal planes of the wooden elements at the points where they connect to one another will remain unprocessed (it will simply not be obtained there).
After that, I’ll go over a list of the essential tools you’ll need to install a roof. hammer, carbon fierce, roulette, brush-maclovice, fomka, drill, screwdriver, drill, perforator, grinder, electric chubby, water or laser level, nylon thread 50 m, and so on.
Installation of the roof of the frame house
There are several methods for fastening the roof’s primary components. This is a nail compound, with the connection made with steel plates or wooden linings, as well as cuts, etc. These days, there are lots of choices. Using nails to make a connection is the most economical choice.
Next, I’ll give a quick explanation of one low-cost method of joining the major roof components in the main nodes. Naturally, keep in mind that there are other options. You can always find an alternative in any node. This is more of an illustration.
Jail-related issues in the skate
As seen in the figure below, the rafters are conveniently connected in the skate by a method on the paws’ floor. Make easy cuts with a chainsaw. Three to four nails measuring between 100 and 150 mm are used to connect this node to the rafters if the section measures 150 by 50 mm. From the back, bend the nails.
Joining the rafters in the skate technique on the paw’s floor.
Journeying by raft to Mauerlat
Under the Mauerlat, which doubles as the upper binding’s beam, the rafters are pre-cut. fastened in the location where the rafter is thinnest with a 200 mm nail driven from above. There are only two nails—one at an angle from each side. The nail vibrates into the beam after passing through the rafters.
Fastening rigels to rafters
A 50 x 150 mm cross section is fastened directly, without any distance gaskets, to the rafters on one side using 150 mm nails. From the back, bend the nail.
Black self-tapping screws are used to fasten 20×50 mm in close proximity to the rafters on a 35 mm tree, with a step of roughly 50 cm.
Attached to the rafters at the intersection of one 60 mm self-tapping screw is a 40×50 mm piece.
This installment of the "DIY Hand Frame House" cycle will focus on building the roof. We’ll decide when the roof should be completed in the construction process.
Root roofs
Step of the frame house’s rafters.
The step of the rafters depends on their cross section, as well as on the size and slope of the slopes. As you know, there are a lot of options for various combinations of these parameters, so I can not prescribe all the possible options for a step of rafters for different sections, slope and sizes of the slope. In our example, the rafters have a section of 150×50 mm, house 6×8 m, a slope of 45 degrees. And for this option, a suitable step of rafters is 70-80 cm. If you have approximately the same parameters, then a step 70-80 cm will suit you too. If the parameters are different, then ask and we will select a step specifically for your case.

The lower the crossbar is located, the better it perceives the spacer and if the crossbar is fixed high, it will not fulfill its function. We will select the minimum height of the location of the crossbar for our example. 2.1 m only the height of the entrance doors (if the crossbar is lower, then the doors will not fit). Plus about 10-20 cm (0.1-0.2 m) above the door and about 5 cm (0.05 m) finishing material of the ceiling. Total we get 2.25-2.35 m. This is the minimum distance from Rigel to the top of the final floor at the height of the doors 2.1 m. If you find doors 2.0 m high, then the crossbar can be placed even lower, at an altitude of 2.15-2.25 m from the top of the final floor. It is also important to remember that the smaller the cubature of air in the attic, the less heat it will be necessary to spend it on heating.

Rafter-rafting Mauerlat.
Under the Mauerlat, which doubles as the upper binding’s beam, the rafters are pre-cut. fastened in the location where the rafter is thinnest with a 200 mm nail driven from above. There are only two nails—one at an angle from each side. The nail vibrates into the beam after passing through the rafters.

A 50 x 150 mm cross section is fastened directly, without any distance gaskets, to the rafters on one side using 150 mm nails. From the back, bend the nail.
A 20×50 mm piece is fastened in a step of roughly 50 cm near the wood rafters, which have a length of 35 mm.
- Mauerlat – a supporting beam that transfers the load from the rafters to the walls of the structure;
- Floors – boards forming the floor of the attic and the ceiling of the lower floor;
- Racks – vertical supports that support the rafter system;
- Runs – horizontal supports for rafters;
- Rigel – transverse horizontal elements that tighten the roof slopes among themselves, otherwise they are called puffs;
- Rafters – boards that form the main contour of the roof;
