Exterior Sheathing for Module 1a

Cut the 17 degree angle on the piece by marking the two vertical distances and snapping a guide chalk line to connect the two. Use a 7-1/4"circular saw to make the cut.

Keep the rest for future use for Mod. 1b and the small 1" wide pieces in this module

Align the sheathing with a 3/4" overhang on the left and a 6" overhang from the bottom plate. The offset will create 3/4" gap on the right side for the previous module to attach to. The top overhang should be 1.5" to cover the top plate that will unify the modules during installation. The bottom overhang will cover the width of the bond beam.

Fasten the 3/4" OSB to the framing using 1-5/8" coated deck screws around the perimeter and interior studs @ approximately 16" spacing.

repeat above procedure for the smaller piece of module

remember that the "scraps" from this 3/4"x4'x8' sheet will be used for the exterior sheathing for Mod. 1b
