Marking out the roof support

This year at Marlborough Boys’ Collegein a Year 12 construction class we are building a tiny house on a trailer. Thesize of the tiny house is 2500mm by 3100mm and stands 2800mm high. We built the jig for the curved roof beams. Also we have started to make some roofsupports that extends the roof over the deck. Over the we have learnt a lotlike what a nog, stud, jack stud, perlin, top plate and what a bottom plate is.We are a group of 5 year 12s and 1 year 11 hoping to pick up skills that willhelp us when we get in the work force once we have left school.
