3. Assembling Optional Purlin Kits
Optional purlins provide additional shade and enhance the design, and are available in kits of 12 or
15. The photographs below feature kits of 15.
The placement of purlins is subjective. We recommend placing two end purlins approximately 16”
in from the tips of the cross beams. For a 15 unit purlin kit, the remaining 13 purlins should be
spaced approximately 9" on center from the center of the end purlin (see diagram below).
