mufutau55: And I'll answer them that I indeed tried as a client in Ibadan but could not get someone affordable that could do it without using my build as a scapegoat. Every single custom home that I've built in the USA had a model that the builder built to showcase to clients. I'm still researching steel roof. |

n3xt: Okay, no problem, it is inherent in your post that you made a tacit admission that using a 2x2 over a 1x12 Fascia board is "relatively cheaper", no matter how small the "savings" is....... and imposes a reduced weight, no matter how small the difference is. My point of view has to do with "learning to improve and do things in a batter way, based on having an open mind to new methods. Its not just a wild argument of "who is right". I will wait for other opinions and point of view on the proposition. Thanks for your contribution. Lastpage! BTW: You mean you have used Steel fascia in the past? Hmmmm.... Dearis God O! 1 Like |

EgunMogaji: Because I cannot afford it yet! Also, my personal build cannot have all the must-haves and nice-to-have features of every client. It has Aquaphonic pond instead of swimming pool. Both are water features but serve different purpose. #talkingaboutscapegoat |

Oga brabus what a lot of croc I say. You still attach 2 by 2 to the lower fascia board anyway and provided they still machine cut the aluminium there is no difference both aesthetics and functionality. All the shops were for the most part done in this way. Just a little harder to fit the aluminium and for storey buildings I no want too much moaning from the fitters or worst them requesting for more money. n3xt: 2 Likes |

I can't figure out this style. I think it's Craftsman style. I love the no fascia board look.

EgunMogaji: That's exposed beam ceiling. Still possible but with a very creative carpenter and more importantly is the need for an eave angle or uPVC gutters at the edge of the roofing sheet. |

gabbytabby: Honestly, I'll try to understand the 2x2 fascia when I dedicate my life to ultimate re search or when there's a mission call. For now, I'll stick to my guns. |

n3xt: I actually, l think you are the "twin brother" of Goodluck Jonathan, .....from another father! You both have an uncanny knack for "over-aggressively" defending yourself, while flip-flopping,....... even when no one is attacking you! Coupled with the fact that you both dont enjoy any public trust in your areas of speciality Infact, if not that Nigerians have said "never again", l would have wagered that you will also be the next PDP-President! \ n3xt: You are the one that said you had done "STEEL" Fascia.... not me! Only to show ALUMINIUM Fascia! Okay, l get it! "America will know" that "Steel" and "Aluminium" are the same. BTW: I thanked you for your contribution, at the beginning of my post.... then l finally thanked you for your contribution, at the end of my post, adding that l am waiting on the contribution of "others". What is it that you dont understand in that? and you have to be complaining that someone is worrying you, like you are some kind of "Holy Grail" in construction? Abeg, take am easy o. I never said YOU or anyone, MUST adopt the option... its just an "open academic discourse" l am having here. Again, THANK YOU... for your contributions to my question....now, give others a chance please! Lastpage! 2 Likes |

Boss, the flat board is structural. The board is a part of the roof structure. It combines all the rafter just like a ring lintel tights the four walls of the house together. its out of convenience that the aluminum is attached to the board nowadays for aesthetic lastpage: 1 Like |

lastpage:even if 2x2 seem to be relatively cheaper which I doubt, i bet you that whatever you save from wood purchase will go into the cost of labour for carpentry if not more. Due to the rigorous work to be done. Compare cutting a length of 1x12 and nailing to cutting of those little joists/ bracers 1 Like |
