I thought I had this vignette until I saw this alternate which has raised a lot of strategic questions for me.
1. The code says that the ceiling has to be at a minimum of 8+1'6" (structure)=9'6." Can it be higher?
The reason I ask is because I reluctantly had to make the lower gable roof asymmetrical. This means the ridge of each roof has to be the same height but can the eaves be different heights or do I have to change the slope?
2. Since the software wont automatically calculate the slope when given two roof edge elevations, then I had to play a game where I set the low elevation and then adjust the slope to get the correct ridge elevation. I was hoping that there would be a few other suggestions regarding layout in you video but it was the standard simple roof Any ideas for a better strategy?
3. How crucial is the length of the cricket? The example in your video was easy because it was on a 45 deg. angle so the length of the cricket would be half of the base. Do I need to calculate precisely if the roof slope is not 45 deg.?
Testing next week
Thanks.
