    How to Connect Sloped Steel Roof Decking to Masonry Wall?

    @JedClampet I was picturing the angle being attached to the roof from the inside, so that the roof would rest on top of it, but I believe you're talking about attaching it to the outside of the roof and the vertical facing of the wall. Your description makes much more sense to me.

    How to Connect Sloped Steel Roof Decking to Masonry Wall?

    My only issue with the bent plate idea that JedClampett described is that I'm not sure the plate will hold. I was under the impression that angles and bent plates with a <90 degrees angle aren't meant to carry compressive loads on their flanges. Has anyone actually implemented this connection?

    How to Connect Sloped Steel Roof Decking to Masonry Wall?

    Hi all, I have a 5:12 sloped steel decking roof that's to be connected to a concrete masonry wall, but I'm not sure how to connect it. All the standardized literature I can find is for either flat roofs, or for connecting the decking to parallel beams. Help me Eng-Tips Forums, you're my only hope.
