Good to see you here.

Thank you.

It’s a 10 year dream, almost to the day.


So typical of weekends, @CraigRK and I were chatting by 06.00 on WhatsApp about our weeks and then progressed to more important stuff.

Like the roof and what materials were needed.

It did not take long before we were in video more and getting sizes down.


So steel structure depth

At 4950 plus a 50mm overhang at the rear and a 500mm stabilised, but unsupported overhang to the front, it gives me a 5.5 meter deep carport.



Rear width on Mickeys boundary, overhanging the woodwork shed by 200mm is 5500mm including a 100mm unsupported overhang to the side.

On the front I offset the one post in order to maximise front access and that is 6500mm or 6.5 meter wide

For those who need to know, the shed overhang and front roof will be getting a small gutter and down pipe to catch whatever run off there is.



Front beam height is 8’1” or 2450mm on the garage side and about 2x or 40mm shorter on the shed side, as the roof is horizontal but the paving drains away gently toward the garage.



Rear beam is 7’5” or 2250mm high on the underside of the beam.




The plan we ended up with to do the quantity calculations.




So black is steel frame.

Red and Green are timbers, all 47x200mm high end C24 carcassing

Orange noggins were planned to be screwed into front timber and then also to blue 50x50 aluminium box section to stabilise unsupported front over reach roofing sheets.

Roofing unfortunately shows a 4-6 week lead time online, so I will call the supplier in the morning to see if there is any way of expediting my small order.

Roofing sheets will be Box Profile Sheets 32/1000 Rib - 0.7mm , PVC Plastisol coated and in Juniper Green.
