Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Pre-assembled plated fasteners eliminate the step of placing plates separately, which is where most labor savings come from. Match fastener length and spacing to the deck type and wind-uplift requirement in your specified assembly, and use a depth-setting driver to avoid overdriving the plate.
Use eye protection and proper driver control when installing fasteners, and follow the specified fastening pattern for the roof assembly.
