Section 2 of a portal frame. This shows the connection of a portal frame to the side of the building, with a universal beams and girts, there is also further fly bracing for added support. The roof is connected in a similar way with the universal beam attaching to the roof with a universal beam as the rafter, and though not seen in this section, purlins attach the roof to the rafter. Sarking is also shown on the roof and wall, the waterproof membrane to make the structure weatherproof. Kliplok roofing has been used and has been cut through for this section.
