Net cover width: 1016mm Universal handing Positioning eaves closure pieces - Before sheeting commences, ensure that the purlin at the eaves is correctly positioned to give the required overhang of the sheeting over the gutter. The maximum unsupported overhang for Profile 6 sheets is 350mm. Each eaves closure piece is fixed at two points, either with the main roof fixings directly to the lowest purlin, or with secondary fasteners to the roof sheets. When fixing eaves closure pieces, consideration must be given to the position of the back in relation to the gutter. Position the back as tightly as possible against the gutter or vertical profiled sheeting to reduce draughts and restrict driving rain, sleet or snow from penetrating the interior of the roof. When ventilation into the roof void is required, a slight gap can be allowed between the back of the closer and the vertical profiled sheeting. For single skin applications, closers with 65mm or 100mm back are typically used. Closers with 150mm and 250mm back are also available for insulated constructions.
