SoffitThe soffit material is screwed into the suspension rails in 60 centimeter sections. Note that this nature board (Shera brand) and other soffit material is much more whether resistant than gypsum wallboard (even the moisture resistant kind). Most comparable houses use gypsum for the soffit material which isn't advisable. dozer00000

The frame work for the roof structure is box section 4 inch x 2 inch heavy 3.2 mm thick metal sections. There are columns at even intervals so a more extensive truss system is unnecessary (as opposed to Chok Dee #1).dozer00000
