In preparation for putting a boiler in my loft I am wondering if a
particular timber is just what the builders used temporarily to support the
roofing timbers whilst building the house. The house has what I believe is
called a double hipped roof.
The timber in question is about 3/4" x 3" - it runs at a shallow angle from
the bottom of a roof member - upward to tie in with 3 others.
Anyone able to advise? Do builders use temporary bits of wood to hold things
upright whilst assembling the roof?
