When finding the safe load, the span of the skylight, the distance the bars are placed apart and the exposure presented for wind pressure, snow, sleet and ice, must be considered. A ridge bar reinforced at e e is shown in Fig. 301 with a sheet metal core a. The joint between the glass and bar is protected from leakage by the cap c b d fastened as previously described.

In the five illustrations next shown, the various shapes of curbs which may be modified to suit the pitch as occasion may demand. The simplest form for small size skylights is shown in Fig. 303, and is bent in one piece from A to B, with a cap flange resting over the wooden curb C, through which screws are inserted at D. Holes for the escape of the condensation are punched at E, allowing the drip to run to the outside. Note that bar F miters to the curb from A to G, as shown by the dotted lines, and gutter b in bar F is notched at c to allow the drip from the bar to flow into the gutter of the curb as shown by the arrow.
