Liked it . Can't say I ever saw basement walls elevated like that . But if it's local code , So be it . Though I have had engineers require when we framed basement or walkout basement walls to be gapped away from floor trusses.. Only bearing contact was allowed at intervals designed into a floor truss , Otherwise random support on a web changes the structural moments and they'll scream structural failure . That was one heck of a 2x14 strongback . Probably put more load on the ceiling joist than providing support in that span . I am always wary of removing ceiling joist on a low slope roof . Got to take a good look upwards before removing below . Granted I know the decking provides a lot of triangulation and there were a few collar ties . Seen some before that framed a vault like that , Frame the roof and sheathe it and must have weakly nailed the it , Strip the braces and then install the collars . Blew the wall out 2" in the center . Ain't no Come Along's going to pull that in LOL . Made for some interesting curved fascia . Never saw how the T&G worked out , Just glad it wasn't me .On any gable like the internal gable you got there , Found a neat way to figure the studs instead of pulling off a lead stud and laying it out on the raked top plate . Then measuring each individually . I plumb up the longest gable stud and record it's length , Then get the shortest gable stud and record it . Then subtract the shortest from the longest and divide by how many stud bays. Then I got a ratio , Essentially a common length difference no matter the slope . Then input the ratio into a calculator and subtract from the longest and list each one for the cut man . To confirm whether I used the correct ratio . It will conclude on the calculator at what I measured the shortest stud or even the second to the shortest . This technique works great on hips/valleys anything that requires a ratio .. Then hand the cut man the list and tell him " Cut and Shut " .. To drive the cut man insane , For my simplicity I write the numbers down in hieroglyphics. For example , Instead of 67-7/8 " it'll be 67-14 , Instead of 32-1/4 " it'll be 32-4 .. This system works great for benchmark stud heights . If a walk out basement has a rippling exterior slab perimeter . Say the benchmark stud height is 134-3/4 " . The 134 becomes a known and all the variable heights are transferred into 1/16" . So if one stud is 134-5/8 " and the next is 134-1/2 " and down the line . Instead of a lot writing . It becomes simply . 10 then 8 and so on . I also got accustomed to not snapping lines on vaults . If the roof has variable sags and heaves . A crisply snapped line will strike the rafter and it will have a oscillating line back and forth. Sometimes a little sometimes a lot . That's why I don't snap lines on rafters tails run wild and then clipped off . Looking down it. The greater the overhang the greater the in and out , because it's wood and it rises and falls that precious amount . I will on a vault go to each end and install the rafter. If it's the one that's sistered alongside the existing . I might drop it ever so slightly so as not to interfere with the maximum and minimum sag . Then run a taut string and gap it with a 8d nail . Install down the line and visually gap that nails diameter.. Never come into contact and from one end to the next even if it's 75' long . My deviation won't be more than a 1/32" from one end to the next ..As long as my string is pulled as tight as the high E-string on a guitar . I use this method as well on knee walls intersecting a rafter for a loft or bonus room . It'll give me a crisp intersect that a drywall artist will love .. But then again . Some hangers will still make the intersect finish out like I dipped a worm in chalk . Not trying to be a smart aleck or criticize , I love seeing younger guys picking up the mantle and aspiring . It's tough work and fun . It's always been fun to build and go home happy . Peace

That’s a lot of wisdom! I appreciate you taking the time to share! I will definitely be considering the dry line for cutting tails, because the chalk line is pretty unreliable

Хорошо придумано с фальшивым потолком, и Укосины нужны, однако потолок в таком помещении все-равно будет давить. Нужно ставить мансардные окна в истинный скат крыши.

Seems you guys in the US are moving to using Paslode more as us Carpenters in the UK are dumping them. Personally never been a fan of Paslode but loads of others love theirs. I swear by old Bostitch gas nailer it's been so reliable & even uses the old NiMh batteries LOL But for the most part I prefer pneumatic like most of you US guys. That sort of roof is what 90% of the roofs we have in the UK are like. I do quite a few loft conversions so cutting old cut roofs about & altering them is a good chunk of my work, lots of the yng Carpenters now can't do cut roofs though as all the new builds they work on are Trusses.
