Step 35: Roof Starters/Roof Peak
1: Place the 1 x 5 x 52” (groove only) Roof Starter Boards at the peak of the roof. The
holes in the Roof Starters should be centered on the Roof Supports. The at side of the
Roof Starters should be placed as close together as possible near the peak without the
boards overlapping.
2: Fasten the Roof Starter Boards to the Roof Supports with 1-1/2” wood screws.
3: Place the 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 x 52” Roof Peak on top of the Roof Starter Boards and fasten
with four 1-1/2” wood screws.
