Concealed Roof Edge detailing...

Featured Replies

Here's an in-progress Posi design for my Car Port roof.

What I'm trying to achieve is a minimal edge detail, with masonry running up to the roofline, just with an Aluminium trim as a termination.

 

What is the normal way to run the timber construction to the edge at the ridge and verge? So far the joists have been designed to land on a wall-plate on the inner leaf and the Posi tails have been left long enough to be trimmed inside the outer leaf, but I guess there will need to be some sort of rim-edge timber detail to support the deck and allow the edge trim to be fixed.

 

At the verge, I am minded to have the last Posi swapped out for a 253mm Glulam, where a ladder frame can be built, but again I'm unsure how to detail this at the edge to achieve the minimal look I'm after. This is how the house is detailed, I'm after a similar effect with the Car Port, but here it's masonry not ICF! Obviously this is an uninsulated roof.

Does anyone have any pics/details they can share to help me to move forwards with this? I greatly appreciate any/all help.
