Abstract
A building structure is disclosed having a facia board 13 and a shingled roof 14. A gutter assembly is secured to the facia board 13 and includes a gutter member 18 and a roof plate 19. The roof plate 19 includes an open C-shaped cavity 30 which receives a flange 25 projecting from the gutter member. The free edge 26 of the flange resiliently seals against the portion of the gutter member which defines the cavity to prevent water from seeping under the roof plate by capillary action. The vertical disposition of the flange in the cavity varies along the axial length of the cavity for pitching the gutter member. The rear wall 21 of the gutter member is nailed to the facia board, and the front wall 22 of the gutter member is supported by a support bracket 37 extending from the rear wall to the front wall.
