Hi,
I am putting in a vertical section of glass which is 3.5 metres tall X 2.3 metres wide which finishes at wallplate level. We are putting 2 8 X 4 rsj's on last course and fixing it with metal straps and wallplate attached. The rafters will sit on this and i was wondering if pvc fascia can box the steel exterior and internally we can box with plasterboard etc.

Pete
