Back to the roof at TAFE and these first few days have been great. We’ve been focusing on the hip and valley roof which we’ve built on a small frame outside. I’ve really enjoyed doing the roofing units at TAFE cause it gives you a great opportunity to get your head around the theory side of the roof and also have a look at a few different ways it can be done, not just the way you do it on site. Although I’m pretty confident with most aspects of the hip and valley roof I haven’t yet had much practice measuring in and cutting props so it was great to have a go of cutting a few today. The roof we built included a scotch valley and a gable.
