Roof Vignette 4.0

Postby jackstatic » Mon Aug 14, 2017 6:49 pm

Hey guys and gals, here is my first attempt at the roof vignette, any and all comments or review would be appreciated.
Few notes, there is a downspout at the locations covered by the elevation markers, they're just hidden.

Is there a recommended distance from the edge of the gutter that the downspout should be? I placed mine at the edges.

Is there a reason I see many people placing the hvac unit over the lounge? I placed it over the lobby due to potential noise issues (a lounge is relaxing while a lobby is busy)

Is the lower roof ok the way I designed it?

The gutters by the chimney would stop and start before and after the chimney correct?

That's pretty much it, I think I got a decent understanding of this, just looking for input.
Thanks in advance!

That's fine, or a bit away. Don't waste time.

Not an issue, just keep away from windows.

Yes, but I recommend using simple gables.

No reason to do that.

If there's flashing on west side of chimney, looks good.
