When only the best will do

Our rafters are:

• Made from better than F8/MGP12 radiata pine - Giving you structurally sound AND visually appealing verandah rafters
   
• Fingerjoined for superior strength - Ensuring that your bullnose verandah or arch withstands the test of time AND weather
   
• Specially designed for fast fixing to the fascia beam - So that you can get the job done quickly AND well

Designed and tested to meet and exceed requirements for SAA codes:

• AS1170 Part 1: SAA Loading Code
• AS1720: Timber Structures Code
• AS4055: 1992 Wind Loads for Housing

We're happy to supply you with a verandah rafter plan. Simply fax us - (03) 9707 4277 or email sales@lyrebird.com.au - a drawing of the verandah, and we will fax you back a rafter plan that complies to building code.

Typical information that we require to provide a verandah rafter plan for your bullnose verandah:

• Length of the verandah along the house
• Width from the house to the outside of the verandah beam
• Height against the wall of the house

We can then calculate the rafter radius that you'll need to provide for proper water run-off.
