Mock-up: Mixed pitch hip roof made out of 2" Styrofoam board!!

This is a mock-up of a roof that made with rafter that is styrofoam. This roof has a base that has the main rafters marked out on it to give clarity and are for instructional purposes especially. I will be uploading all of the videos and pics in the near future.

I have to agree with you Louis the models and the maths are a key part of learning to be a good roof framer! Respect and hope all is good for you and your family, Thomas from Ireland.

Great job. It reminds me of the old movie "close encounters" when the guy built a mountain in his living room

[@JusBrewIT]

Styrofoam was a great idea for not making a huge mess and going in and out of the house

POP! POP!

Is the line length of a common equal to the run of the hip/ Val?

[@xholordrgz4856]

Can you explain the 5 inch rise please ,we do roofs like that mostly 6/12 and 9/12 I want to learn

[@d.vil94]

Do these calculations still work if your not cutting a bird mouth , but just laying the full rafter on the top plate.

[@tillmansr2002]

where do you buy the 2" styrofoam?

[@daveo.5479]

Thanks for the video! I am making a 1st floor addition on my house that’s a rectangular space. The hip roof will not be at a 45 degree angle because it’s rectangular; are there any considerations that need to be made when doing it that way? I cannot find anything on a rectangular hip

[@raybrensike42]

Your hips should always be at a 45 degree, on a plan view. When framing a hip on a rectangle, you should have some ridge.

[@maxgarrido3597]

Parece que está fuera de línea el hip que enfocó

[@tillmansr2002]

Are you available for consulting. I have a tricky shed roof 2.5:12 attaching to a gable 6:12 end at different pitches and at different elevations. I'm looking for some knowledgeable 'master' carpenter that can help me. .
