Roof Section Help!

[jjifmeyer]

I can't seem to figure this roof section out.

Can anyone help me straighten this section out.

Not sure how to accomplish this.

A thorough explanation would be appreciated as I am new to CA

 

I have included the Plan file.

 

Thanks  JIMMY

I would extend the roof plane on the left all the way to the right and cut the back of the gable with a saddle. (I know I am missing cricket on the right)

I think you either need to reduce the roof height of the front porch. reduce it's width, or reduce it's pitch so that the ridge will clear the upper floor window.

I would also adjust the depth of the covered porch on the left so that the hip meets the upper floor corner - but that is being very pedantic.

Still can't get this to work for me.

Not sure why I'm having so many problems.

 

I did lower the height of the window but cant get things to line up.

 

If I could duplicate "glennw's" work I would be good to go.

I can't get it to auto generate as "glennw" did.

I must be missing a step.

Because I followed your instructions and get this:

Not the same as yours?

And make these settings.

That did not work.

In your original response above what did you lower the pitch of the 2 wall too?

Adjust the pitch on the marked walls and watch what happens.

I lowered then to 3"

This is what I'm trying to accomplish.

Thanks for all the help.

I agree videos are the best.

After walking away for a while to get my head straight your video was very educational. I really appreciate your help.

 

Thanks!
