Visit us today to find more helpful information about roof framing, garage building and home repairs. In this video I will provide you with nailing requirements to fasten together ceiling joist to roof rafters and rafter ties to roof rafters. You can find this information in most building code books or by typing in the words "ceiling joist and rafter tie connections" into your favorite search engine. These charts will provide you with the minimum nailing for each connection while building roofs with rafters and not engineered roof trusses.
