As well as improving the aesthetic of the garden green roof buildings are a great way to support wildlife.
Log store roof construction.
These corner braces are an ancient trick.
There are many material options available for the roof of your log store.
They form triangles which as you know don t flex in the way parallelograms do.
A green roof storage shed is an attractive place to store wheelie bins.
Remember that the roof has to overlap the two sides and the front by about 30 cm.
It s crucial that air is allowed circulate through the wood so leave gaps between the slatted sides and back of your store.
Place the roof panel on the frame align the back edge with the back of the frame and adjust the position of the roof so that it overlaps each side by the same amount.
Drill two holes through the top and bottom of each main post.
These are cut at 45 angles and once drilled and screwed into place the log store is suddenly very solid indeed.
By adding the triangles we are removing weakness from the structure.
Build the front and back frames of the log store.
Build the frame for easy access a log store with an open front is preferable so you ll be wanting to build a three sided structure with a base and roof.
It can be made of pallets by covering the slats with slats cannibalised from another pallets or the slats can be removed from other pallets and then screwed or nailed to a the pallet walls.
