The face of eave flashing normally starts at 10 inches and above. This allows for guttering to be attached along the face of the flashing if home owners so choose.
If attaching under-ceiling, a two lip is bent at a 90 degree angle towards the house at the bottom end of the flashing. This allows for the under-ceiling to be attached to it. If an under-ceiling isn't being attached, its highly recommended to have a 1/2 inch lip bent at at 135 degrees to allow for water run off away from the building.
