Abstract:
1. A method of making an endwall overhang for a building, the method comprising: providing a roof piece and a first trim piece, each of the roof piece and the first trim piece comprising a first edge and a second edge; and providing a lengthwise member comprising a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are substantially orthogonal; forming an overhang assembly by: providing a structure comprising: coupling at least one solid support member with an outside surface of the gable of the outside of the endwall, wherein the at least one solid support member protrudes outward from the structure and comprises a top support surface; and subsequent to forming the overhang assembly and to coupling the solid support member with the outside surface of the gable of the outside of the endwall, coupling the overhang assembly to the structure by coupling the roof piece of the overhang assembly with the top support surface of the support member such that the roof piece is substantially parallel to the top support surface and the second edge of the roof piece substantially overlaps the top support surface, leaving a gap between the lengthwise member and the at least one support member.
