selbstfixierende Befestigung des Kehlbleches am Mansardenbalken
Explanation:
curb, kerb = Bordstein, Bordsteinkante (Ernst, Duden-Oxofd)
curb roof = Mansardendach = mansard roof = gambrel roof (US)
curb, kerb = A timber on a roof, somtimes to form a roll, such as the break between the uppr und lower slopes of a mansard roof (Penguin)

flashing = Schornsteineinfassung (Duden-Oxord)

self-mounting tyre chain = selbstaufziehende Kette (Kucera)

curb-mounting flashing meint deshalb die Befestigung der (Schornstein)einfassung an dem Mansardenbalken. Falls kein Schornstein eingefaßt werden muß, so bietet sich der neutralere Begriff "Kehlblech" an.
