The morning session we went over the different parts of a roof again.
Then had to draw up a 3D plan of a man hole in the ceiling, naming all the parts

• Ceiling joist
• Trimming joist
• Trimmer
• Curtail joist
• Load bearing wall

The rest of the day was spent on the build. Finishing the purlins along each side, starting with the 2 rib purlins.
I carried on with putting in the last half of the lintel with John. Cut to length and nailed in using the gas nail gun at 50mm in from the side and at 50mm intervals down [skewed] 300mm apart.
Then we put the tin plate on to router out the shape of the tie.
