Good video well explained, another way is to add a saddle board for the crown rafter and the Hips to be fully seated against, when the crown rafter is set against the saddle board it also needs a small triangular block fixed to the underside of the plum cut allowing the longer length of the Hip rafter plumb cuts to fully rest against.
Great video's. I'm actually a chippie and I've cut ad pitched a lot of roofs but I forget thing after I've not done one for a while like whether or not the half span line is the edge or the centre of the first rafter. I always watch your video's for a quick refresher.
great video, but my question is, how can I find the roof height/rise without using trigonometric method, can't I just think of any number I want to use as height or rise?
Hi Johannes, thanks for your comment. As a builder or a carpenter, we are generally given the required pitch of the roof and are required to work with that however if you are designing the building or roof then, of course, you could just pick a rise although it is more common to pick a pitch and the work out the rise from there. I am not aware of a method of working out rise without Trigonometry other than drawing it out to scale or even full size and measuring it of the plan. Hope this helps
Hi Mate, as the hips always have to bisect the corner then in the average building they are always going to be 45 degrees so this shouldn't happen in the average building however if it does I would just work ou the half span of the of the building and the distance that the ridge would stop from the end and take that away from the overall length of the building on both ends to get the length of the ridge. Just remember that this is not normal and the roof would look weird if you actually built it like this. Hope this helps
Buildsum, so all 4 face slopes are equal with bisect hips? My right face slope is slightly greater means what for angle, bigger or smaller? And. There are gables on top and bottom face so I don't have straight alignment ability to the ridge from the eve. How can I determine vertical on both sides of gables so that I can lay down metal panels and have them be plumb so to not get skewed thanks.
OK, You may have an Unequally pitched roof, where the angle of one side is different to the angle on the other side. The most identifiable feature of this would be that the ridge would not be in the centre of the roof. I don't have a video on these at the moment. If this is the case then the angle on the longer side is usually still the 45 degrees, on plan, while the angle on the other side will be adjusted to meet the long hip at the ridge and obviously not 45 degrees.
sir thanxx for sharing these videos but sir i have a one question that is how to calculate concrete volume of roof structure of same drawing please give me some knowledge of that how to find am waiting for your answer
Hi Priyam, i don't have any videos on working out concrete roofs however it is the same as a normal slab on the ground so these videos may help ua-cam.com/users/edit?o=U&video_id=-mTn_gN1SKc ua-cam.com/users/edit?o=U&video_id=3zF87MsP4PY
sir link which you have given its not working could u please upload videos on how to find concrete volume of hip roofs it will be diferent from plane slan please do some efforts for me it will be helpful for me sir please
Hi Priyam here are those links again ua-cam.com/video/3zF87MsP4PY/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/-mTn_gN1SKc/v-deo.html Sorry, I don't have any videos for a concrete hip roof as we never do it like that in Australia.
Thanks!
Thanks Mate.

Hi Thomas, Thanks for your comment, I have never seen it done that way but good to know.

Thanks, Mate, I sometimes have to go back and look at them myself to remember how some things are done. Thanks for your comment.
No worries thanks for the video's, they really are good. I only worry to many people will watch them and I'll be out of a job LOL
Does the Rise of the Roof have any Affect on the Hip Roof Ridge Length ?
Hi Joni, no it would be the same regardless of the height of the ridge.
@@Buildsum Thanks Mate
Span - Run + 1 1/2 " = Ridge Length ( if you are using typical 2x dimensional lumber
great video, but my question is, how can I find the roof height/rise without using trigonometric method, can't I just think of any number I want to use as height or rise?

Great video as usual.
Thank you!
Thanks, Mate, Glad you like it, I just never know how people are going to react to a new video, It always makes me nervous.
Can you make another vid using ft and inches please
Hi Mate, sorry I don't so feet and inches.
There’s 25.4mm in an inch, 304.8mm in a foot. Convert it yourself.
No one has done a video on how / where a valley rafter lands on the ridge beam
Great video as always :D
Thanks, Mate, Good to know, Glad you like it.
Say you lengthen your Ridge, and you won't get that 45 degrees. how do you figure then?
Hi Mate, as the hips always have to bisect the corner then in the average building they are always going to be 45 degrees so this shouldn't happen in the average building however if it does I would just work ou the half span of the of the building and the distance that the ridge would stop from the end and take that away from the overall length of the building on both ends to get the length of the ridge.

As the longer side is still 45 degrees then the 1/2 span of that side can still be used to get the length of the Ridges as per the video.

1,4142 does 99 % of all, as an old brotherhood carpenter knows.
It wasn't clear how to calculate

i can barley hear or understand a damn word you are saying!
Hi Jeffery, I agree the audio is a bit quite however i was able to turn it and i can hear it fine.
