Supporting eave tiles on door canopy

[tractor-pete]

I'm about to make a small door canopy 60cm x 90cm on each side/slope.

There are 3 rafters at 30cm spacings. The eave slate will be attached to a batten, but what will support the bottom of the slate, as there is no bottom batten?

I could add an extra batten but it will raise the eave slate alot.

I thought about using a cloaking soffit strip horizontally which would support it but not sure it's strong enough.

I've also realised from underneath everyone will just see the breathable membrane... So is there something better??

If I cover it with ply/oab first then there'll be no natural gap between the rafters for the membrane to sag and allow for water run off... So guess I'd need to add ply, then vertical battens and then horizotal battens... But then the slates will be about 60cm (9mm ply, 25cm + 25cm) away from the original rafter and the verging mortar will look ridiculous.

Please help!! I'm definitely over thinking it now haha

Fascia board or a fillet kicker.

Something like this?

Eaves Felt Support Tray

• Prevents felt from sagging at eaves level and subsequent ponding of water• Eliminates the need to strip a large section of roof to replace old, damaged felt• Fits in new build or refurbishment situations

For fascia boards, which is better PVC or the MDF ones?

Does the membrane go over or under the fascia/kicker?

Under, or it will pool right?

OP,
You will need to set your fascia at the correct height to pick up the eaves tiles.
The roofing felt goes over the plastic, eaves felt support tray.
