How to make a roof on the garage

It is no secret that any garage is needed reliable and practical roof. After all, it takes not the last participation in the preservation of the vehicle from wind, snow and other similar phenomena. Therefore, the construction of the roof is one of the most important stages of the construction of the garage. This article will help motorists to navigate in the structural versions of the garage roof, materials that are used for its structure, and nuances of roofing works.

Best of all during the construction of the garage in advance to be thought out to the little things, what your future roof will be. Therefore, at the design stage, familiarize yourself with the existing types of garage roofs and correctly calculate your strength. After all, it is necessary to provide some nuances for the construction of certain types of roofs (flat, single-table). For example, different height of garage walls. This is required to create the desired slope. The roof shape is divided into two main types:

Flat.
Scope.

The latter are divided into the following subspecies: single-sided; Double. Four-tight, ball and other more complex roof designs are also quite rare. Usually their appearance is due to the general design decision to become the style of the main house and other nearby structures.

The flat roof is the most simple and economical option, which also cuts out garage cooperatives. Due to the close location of the boxes in them, other types of roofs are almost unreal. It is worth noting that the slope in such structures is still present within 2.5 degrees, but they have no attic. Create an attic room is possible, but only with the device of the rafter system. It happens that reinforced concrete plates are used as the overlap, which are topped with soft roofing materials (rubberoid, glassobit, etc.). For the construction of such a flat roof to lower and secure the plates on the box of the future garage. Top plates to put a hard insulation, and only then the soft coating you have chosen.

The angle of the slope of the pitched roof is much greater than flat. Its indicators vary from 15 to 60 degrees, in addition, an attic room can be equipped. These are used such roofing materials:

slate;
metal tile;
professional sheet or metal sheet (smooth, with galvanized).

Choose any of them depending on personal preferences and material capabilities. For example, metal tile is considered the most optimal option due to an acceptable value in combination with reliability, durability and rapid installation.

The main differences between a single-table roof from the banta is the number of slopes - one slope, the angle of which, as a rule, does not exceed 30 degrees. The first option is the optimal way to arrange the roof of the garage, because It is easy enough to manufacture and is a cheaper alternative to multicate roofs. One of the end walls of the garage rises to a large height to achieve the desired angle of inclination. Therefore, first of all, decide with the angle of the roof of the roof. Important: The greater the wind loads in the area where the box is placed for the car, the smaller it is worth doing the angle of inclination.

The sequence of mounting a single-table roof is as follows:

Installing Mauerlat. This element is considered a base for rafters.
Production and installation of the rafter system.
Manufacturing and laying of the crates.
Roof flooring.

At the first stage, fasten the wooden bars (Mauerlat) using anchor bolts to brick masonry of garage walls. The second stage lies in the construction of the framework of the frame of the future roof, i.e. Construction and installation of the rafter system:

All wooden elements of the rafter treat a special antiseptic that prevents the rotation process.
Scroll legs place in advance cut-off nests on the beams of Mauerlat. All holes are treated with protective equipment.
On the high part of the roof to the beams, fasten the vertical racks (rafters). It turns out the design, the correctness of which determine the presence of a direct angle.

At the third stage, make a frame for the crate - connect the bottom beams and vertical rafters of the upper part. It's time to start the process of making the roof crate, which is stacked across the rafter. To do this, prepare bars with dimensions 5 by 5 cm and bring them to rafters at right angles. The chest can be performed continuously, in the form of a solid coating, or in a step, which is equal to the size of the selected material for coating the roof. At the final stage, make the installation of roofing. The principle of the structure of the garage bartal roof is similar to the algorithm described above, the main differences are in the size of the structure.

Performing laying of modern materials for a flat roof, you will not need special construction skills. Laying coatings used for pitched roofs, not so simple, but choosing the optimal view of the roof, given its features and varieties of laying, you can do work yourself for one or two days.
