    Bonus room over garage on two story

    It depends.

     

    Try setting the bonus room ceiling to 1-1/2". Build the roof. How does it look?

     

    If the roof is OK, turn off auto rebuild and raise the bonus room ceiling.

     

    Ceiling height tells the program where to build a roof with auto roofs.

     

    That did the trick.  Thanks a lot Solver!

    Bonus room over garage on two story

    I'm struggling to understand how to create a bonus room over a garage attached to a two story home.  I read the chief article on bonus room trusses, but If I check the ignore top (2nd) floor, it obviously ignores the entire upstairs.  Do I need to do the ignore 2nd floor and then manually adjust the rest of the house?  Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated!
