A method of making an endwall overhang for a structure is provided. The method may include providing a roof piece, a first trim piece, and a lengthwise member. The method may also include forming an overhang assembly by coupling the roof piece with a first surface of the lengthwise member and coupling the first trim piece with a second surface of the lengthwise member. The method may further include providing a structure and coupling a support member with the outside surface of an endwall of the structure, with the support member protruding from the endwall. The method may thereafter include coupling the overhang assembly to the structure by coupling the roof piece of the overhang assembly with a top support surface of the support member.

1. A method of making an endwall overhang for a building, the method comprising: providing a roof piece and a first trim piece, each of the roof piece and the first trim piece comprising a first edge and a second edge; andproviding a lengthwise member comprising a first surface and a second surface,
1. A method of making an endwall overhang for a building, the method comprising: providing a roof piece and a first trim piece, each of the roof piece and the first trim piece comprising a first edge and a second edge; andproviding a lengthwise member comprising a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are substantially orthogonal;forming an overhang assembly by: coupling the roof piece with the first surface, wherein the roof piece is flush with the first surface; andcoupling the first trim piece with the second surface;providing a structure comprising: an endwall comprising an inside facing inward to the structure and an outside facing outward from the structure, each of the inside and the outside comprising an upper region, the upper region of the outside forming a gable, anda roof frame;coupling at least one solid support member with an outside surface of the gable of the outside of the endwall, wherein the at least one solid support member protrudes outward from the structure and comprises a top support surface; andsubsequent to forming the overhang assembly and to coupling the solid support member with the outside surface of the gable of the outside of the endwall, coupling the overhang assembly to the structure by coupling the roof piece of the overhang assembly with the top support surface of the support member such that the roof piece is substantially parallel to the top support surface and the second edge of the roof piece substantially overlaps the top support surface, leaving a gap between the lengthwise member and the at least one support member. 2. The method of making an endwall overhang for a building of claim 1, wherein the roof frame defines a roof plane and the top support surface is substantially parallel to the roof plane. 3. A method of making an endwall overhang for a building, the method comprising: providing a roof piece and a first trim piece, each of the roof piece and the first trim piece comprising a first edge and a second edge; andproviding a lengthwise member comprising a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are substantially orthogonal;forming an overhang assembly by: coupling the roof piece with the first surface; andcoupling the first trim piece with the second surface;providing a structure comprising: an endwall comprising an inside situated to face inward to the structure and an outside situated to face outward from the structure, each of the inside and the outside comprising an upper region and a lower region, the upper region of the outside forming a gable, anda roof frame comprising at least one solid support, wherein the at least one solid support member is a portion of the roof frame that extends outward from, and penetrates through, the endwall of the structure, and comprises a top support surface; andsubsequent to forming the overhang assembly and to providing the structure, coupling the overhang assembly to the structure by coupling the roof piece of the overhang assembly with the top support surface of the support member such that the roof piece is substantially parallel to the top support surface and the second edge of the roof piece substantially overlaps the top support surface, leaving a gap between the lengthwise member and the at least one support member. 4. The method of making an endwall overhang for a building of claim 1, further comprising providing a second trim piece comprising a first edge and a second edge, and wherein: the lengthwise member further comprises a third surface, the third surface and the second surface being in planes which form a dihedral angle; andthe second trim piece is coupled with the third surface. 5. The method of making an endwall overhang for a building of claim 4, wherein the dihedral angle between the third surface and the second surface is substantially a right angle. 6. A method of making an endwall overhang for a building, the method comprising: providing a roof piece and a first trim piece, each of the roof piece and the first trim piece comprising a first edge and a second edge; andproviding a lengthwise member comprising a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are substantially orthogonal;forming an overhang assembly by: coupling the roof piece with the first surface; andcoupling the first trim piece with the second surface;providing a structure comprising: an endwall comprising an inside facing inward to the structure and an outside facing outward from the structure, each of the inside and the outside comprising an upper region, the upper region of the outside forming a gable, anda roof frame;coupling at least one solid support member with an outside surface of the gable of the outside of the endwall, wherein the at least one solid support member protrudes outward from the structure and comprises a top support surface; andsubsequent to forming the overhang assembly and to coupling the solid support member with the outside surface of the gable of the outside of the endwall, coupling the overhang assembly to the structure by coupling the roof piece of the overhang assembly with the top support surface of the support member such that the first surface of the lengthwise member is substantially parallel with the top support surface and the second edge of the roof piece substantially overlaps the top support surface, leaving a gap between the lengthwise member and the at least one support member. 7. The method of making an endwall overhang for a building of claim 6, wherein the first surface of the lengthwise member being substantially parallel with the top support surface comprises the first surface of the lengthwise member being substantially coplanar with the top support surface.
