SD-25: Typical Verge Connection Detail

What this detail covers

  • Forming the roof verge/gable overhang and edge connection.
  • Typical SIP screw pattern and PU adhesive locations (subject to engineering).

Key steps

  1. Confirm verge overhang and edge finish requirements (fascia/barge/cappings).
  2. Apply PU adhesive to the mating faces as shown.
  3. Fix with SIP screws per the specified schedule.

Checks

  • Edge is straight and true (verge lines are visually unforgiving).
  • Fixings are to schedule and not over-driven.

Common mistakes

  • Over-driving screws and crushing the edge zone.
  • Inconsistent overhang due to poor set-out.

Indicative only: always follow the engineer’s fixing schedule and the project drawings.
