How to install a curtain rod?

When completing the completion of the coatingroofs do not forget about such details as drains, cornice overhangs and slats. Since the qualitative result (a solid, non-leaky roof) largely depends on these small, but such important elements. Consider how to install the cornice.

Cornice lath

Cornice lath (overhang) is categorized asadditional elements of the roof, while it performs a decorative function, and a protective role. This detail keeps the lower level of the crate and the frontal wooden elements from the effects of atmospheric precipitation. It also protects sheets of roofing from all kinds of deformations. The bar for the cornice is made of metal and plastic of a variety of shades, which is important when selecting the building material for the roofing and gutter system.

How can I fix the cornice bar?

1.Due to the formation of a projection of the cross bar (tightening). At the same time, for strengthening the fastening of the rafters with bearing surfaces, special devices (kerchiefs, nozzles) are provided. In this case, the construction of the roof will resemble the shape of the fungus, and this system is usually provided for the construction of buildings from wood and frame-shield devices.

2.By discharging the rafters beyond the outer wall level. In this case, to protect against the blowing of the space under the roof under the overhang set the brick cornices to the upper level of the farms. Such a device is used in brick and stone structures with overlap of reinforced concrete.

Erection of eaves eaves

The curtain rod is installed in such a way that it directs the running water down the gutters into the drain. When carrying out assembly work, it would be nice to take note of the following points:

• The overhang of the roof, or the removal of this structure should be at least 0.5 m. When organizing the drainage through rainwater, this value can be reduced.
• Installation of the cornice should be madeso that there are no slots, holes, etc., as otherwise the attic room will be blown out. And this, in turn, can lead to significant heat loss in the house.
• The overhang must be established beforeto fix the roofing sheets, with the bar to be attached tightly, without gaps. Only in this case there will be no noise from the gusts of the wind.
• Elements of the cornice should be lapped over the length (range 5-10 cm).
• The bar is attached to the frontal board and cornice with the help of galvanized nails or self-tapping screws, while the fastening step should not exceed 30 cm.
• The edges of the waterproofing layer of the cornice must be laid over the lower level of the crate and overhang.
