Hello!
I am going to put a roof on our veranda. Rafters are 45x170 on center 800. These rest against double 45x170 at the front of the veranda. The veranda is 10 meters wide and about 2.2 meters deep. Approximately 13-degree slope. All this was drawn and calculated by a designer. However, the drawings do not say anything about attachment to the house's frame, but I think the forum has the right expertise for that.
The idea is to screw a 45x195 or 220 with Essve ET-T construction screws into the house's wooden frame and on this, attach joist hangers for the rafters (13 of them). The question is whether I should screw into every standing stud (center 60) or if it's enough with every other one (center 120)? And how many screws per spot? It's a bit tricky with each screw position because there is a 40mm soft wood fiberboard on the outside of the house's frame. To make it solid, I plan to embed a small wooden block in the fiberboard so that it is wood against wood against wood.
I've tried to read the documentation, but it's a bit too technical and theoretical for me to understand.
I would rather not call the designer since we are completely settled financially and I don't want to risk another invoice.

I am going to put a roof on our veranda. The rafters are 45x170 at cc 800. These rest against double 45x170 at the front edge of the veranda. The veranda is 10 meters wide and about 2.2 meters deep. Approximately a 13 degree slope. All of this is designed and calculated by a constructor. However, the drawings do not mention attachment to the house frame, but I think the forum has the right expertise.
The idea is to screw a 45x195 or 220 with Essve ET-T construction screws into the house's wooden frame and attach joist hangers for the rafters on this (13 pcs). The question is whether I should screw into every vertical post (cc60) or if every other one (cc120) is sufficient? And how many screws per place? It's a bit tricky with each screw position because there is a 40mm soft wood fiberboard on the outside of the house frame. To make it solid, I’m thinking of embedding a small wooden block into the fiberboard so that it's wood against wood against wood.
I have tried reading documentation, but it’s a bit too technical and theoretical for me to understand...
I prefer not to call the constructor since we are completely settled financially for a long time and I don't want to risk a new invoice..

Now it depends somewhat on whether there is a risk of snow from a roof above.
But typically 3 pcs 6mm screws in each post. (Cc600)
