ABSTRACT:
A framed enclosure includes a roof unit and a wall unit attachable to both the roof unit and to a foundation. The roof unit may be attachable to a host structure via a gutter unit. The heads of fasteners connecting the wall unit to the foundation, the wall unit to adjacent wall units, the wall unit to the roof unit, the roof unit to adjacent roof units, and the roof unit to the gutter unit, are covered to prevent corrosion of the respective fasteners and improve the appearance of the enclosure. The connection between the roof unit and gutter unit is configured to prevent leakage of rainwater. A head member between the wall unit and the roof unit includes an upper portion defining a bridge between the head members of adjacent wall units.
