easy way to do it , run your ridge long on the hip side, then put the rafter up and draw the line, cut it in place

My question: if you’re building on a slope, is the concrete under the house will be flat throughout the entire house or are there “steps” concrete as you go up?

I was going use this information to build a 16x16 pavilion.
I know most of your construction information is about homes, but I’m trying to figure out how to make the center vented / raised for a air circulation when I mount a fan under side. Making a shingle roof

Email me a picture of your design.

If the 24' length and 24' deep are the same would the ridge length be 1 1/2 feet, Thanks

Thanks for sharing...how would I calculate the height of the roof?? Please explain I'm a student watching from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬

[@phil-spinelli]

if you doing 12/12 pitch, and your outside to outside wall is 10 foot, your run will be 5 foot for the rafter and you'll also be 5 foot high for the ridge board (plus or minus a very litttle bit)

I need complit calculation for hip roofting

[@user-ln6up3se1u]

Why sometimes the plan and actual connot correct,?

[@nhitc6832]

I'm wondering why there is no columns in the middle to support the roof in this configuration

[@gregvancom]

I didn't see a need for them, but larger building with snow loads might need additional support.
