Use Tape to Hold the Walls Straight
Apply a second layer of studs to the top of the walls.This is called a DOUBLE TOP PLATE.They should overlap at the corners to hold walls together.

Fireproofing
• The front wall will remain uncovered on the inside.• Cover the left wall with interior siding.• Install fire-resistant material inside the right wall
before installing interior siding.– Cotton?– Aluminum foil?– Foam?– ?
• Leave the back wall completely open, front and back.

TRUSSES• Use truss template to build EIGHT trusses.• Make them as EXACT as you can. Even slight
differences will make the roof not fit right.
TIP: Place all 8 trusses together in a clamp and sand them before installing!
![Page 21: SHED CONSTRUCTION A Visual Guide. C.A.D. Example](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56649dd15503460f94ac699c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Add 4 gussets to each trusswhere each piece comes together.
Label one gusset and one truss.

What’s Next?
• We will build a neighbor-friendly fence on two sides of your shed.
• We will place one army man inside each shed.• For those willing to sacrifice their shed, we will
pour an equal amount of flammable material inside each shed and catch them on fire to test their fire-resistance.
• We will complete a reflection in our engineering notebooks to compare how each shed performed.
