MK4B TIMBER FRAME

Step 1: Back Wall: Select one 4.210m Base Plate (Green), one

4.210m Top Plate (Red) and six Studs (Yellow). Lay out Plates

and two Studs on a flat surface and nail together using two

75mm nails per join. Nail in remaining centre studs using Nogs

to get correct position. Position Nogs .883m below Top Plate

and nail in place. (All Plates, Studs and Nogs are joined to-

gether with two 75mm nails each end).

Step 2: Front Wall: Select one 4.210m Base Plate (Green), one

4.210m Top Plate (Red), four Studs (Yellow) and two

1.185m Nogs. Nail studs to each end of Plates. Nail in re-

maining two studs using 1.185m Nogs to get correct posi-

tion. Position Nogs .883m below Top Plate and nail in

place.

Step 3: End Wall: Select one 3.380m Base Plate (Green), one

3.380m Top Plate (Red), three Studs (Yellow) and

two .787m Nogs. Lay out Plates and one Stud on a flat sur-

face and nail Stud centrally between Plates. Nail remaining

Studs to Plates using .787m Nogs to get the correct posi-

tion. Position Nogs .883m below Top Plate and nail in

place. Repeat with second End Frame.

JACK STUDS

YELLOW

Note: For sheds with the Raised Floor Modification option the studs will be 1.780m long to allow the Wall Sheets to pro-

trude 20mm below the Bottom Plate. Refer to Raised Floor Modification section (Page 15).

MK4B TIMBER FRAME

Step 4: Stand up Back Wall frame and one End frame

and nail together, using two 75mm nails per join,

top and bottom. Stand remaining Frames up and

nail together. Nail in remaining .765m Nogs in

End Walls.

Step 5: Position middle Jack Stud, centrally on End Wall

Top Plates and nail in place. Nail remaining Jack

Studs in. Position middle Ridge Beam to Jack

Stud and skew-nail in place using two 75mm

nails each end. Pre-drilling holes before nailing

will prevent timber from splitting.

Step 6: Place intermediate Roof Beams by using Roofing

Nogs to determine correct position (see fig. 2).

Nail intermediate Roof Beams in place. Nail 70 x

45mm Roofing Nogs in place (End Wall) and 90

x 45mm Roofing Nogs in place (Middle).

Step 7: Place Frame in correct position, checking the shed is square and level.

Dynabolt Frame to concrete base as instructed on page 4.

Step 8: Temporarily brace each side and roof, making sure each side is square.

Nail strip bracing to outside of Frame (see page 4), making sure it is tight.

Nail multigrip brackets to each of the four bottom corners (two per cor-

ner). Use 30mm bracket nails supplied.

Note: Condensation can form on the underside of cladding. If building paper is required, fit now. The building paper

will need to be supported by netting or roofing twine.

MK4B WALL CLADDING

TO AVIOD CORROSION:

 Where at all possible try not to trap metal filings between two sheets. Remove all metal filings before riveting.

 Carbon in pencils reacts with the Zinc/Aluminium coating on steel. Use ink to mark steel.

TERMS EXPLANATION

 To Tack: To Tack on a wall sheet means to use minimum nails hammered partly in to hold Wall Sheets in position. Should

a Wall Sheet need to be re-positioned, the nails can easily be prized out.

 If a window is required, identify Wall Sheet(s) with window hole pre-cut. Lean up Wall Sheets where window(s) are to be located.

Note:

When fitting Ga-

ble End Sheets

ensure they over-

lap correctly (fig

1).

The overlap di-

rection may differ

from cladding

detail.

MK4B WALL CLADDING

Step 1: Front Wall: Start at the left hand side. Posi-

tion the Wall Sheet with the LIP on the left hand

side. Ensuring the LIP is flush with side of the

Stud and the top of the Top Plate, tack in place.

Repeat with Wall Sheet on the right hand side

of doorway.

Step 2: Back Wall: Position the first Wall Sheet with

the LIP on the right hand side. Ensuring the LIP

is flush with the side of the Stud and the top of

the Wall Sheet is flush with the top of the Top

Plate, tack in place. Position the next Wall

Sheet with the LIP on the right hand side. Over-

lap as shown in fig.1 (page 7). Ensuring Wall

Sheet is flush with top of Top Plate, tack in

place. Repeat with remaining two sheets.

Step 4: Nailing Off: Nail one 30mm Clout each side of the Rib (two per Pan) into the Top Plates and Bottom

Plates. Nail Wall Sheets to mid wall Nogs (one per pan). Nail each corner Wall Sheet to Studs using two

30mm Clouts evenly spaced.

Gable Ends: When nailing Gable Wall Sheets to the Top Plate, use a String Line. At the top of the gable nail two

30mm Clouts into the end of the Ridge Beam. This will stop it from twisting.

Step 3: End Walls: Lean Gable Wall Sheets against

the shed to form gable shape. With the LIP

flush with side of Stud tack in place ensuring

the bottom of the Wall Sheet is 10mm above

the bottom of the Bottom Plate. Tack on re-

maining Wall Sheets. Repeat with other gable

end. If fitting a window, nail in Window Studs

and Nog now. Refer to Window instructions.

holes in each corner and nail Window

Frame to framing, using 50mm nails.

Step 4: If the Window is in the gable end, tempo-

rarily position the Over Panel above Win-

dow Frame. Following the same angle as

the gable, mark and cut to suit.

Step 5: Rivet Over Panel to the Window Frame

with rivets.

ing with three 30mm clouts into studs on

the inside and three rivets into Rib on

the outside. Pre-drill holes on the outside

to protect flashing. Repeat with the other

Door Jamb.

Step2: Measure and cut Doorstep Flashing (A106)

to fit in between Door Jambs. Positioning

the Doorstep Flashing in between Door

Jambs at bottom of doorway, nail through

top of flashing using five 30mm Clouts. Re-

peat with the Overdoor Flashing (A105).

Step 1: Lay out the two window studs (883mm) and

Nog (590mm) on a flat surface. Position

at each end.

570mm

Step 6: From the outside of the shed, place glass
