Treehouse2339 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I am designing a pergola. So I am wondering if on the support beams and the rafters, which I made from general framing, can have a detail on the ends similar to a roof fafter tail.

Chopsaw Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Sorry only Roof Beams and Rafters or manually with polyline solids drawn in section view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 As said, you have to make your own joists and beams. Make one and copy/paste, it's not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justmejerry Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 You can add a molding line at end of joist or general framing member and apply rafter tail as molding. Like Joey said if you make one block it and you have it for library or for multiple copy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 You can actually make a Pergola out of a roof plane. The only real issue is you can only profile one end of the rafters and beams so they need to be two pcs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you know there is actually a pergola already done and saved as a symbol that looks almost identical to this in the library? Very similar anyways if I remember right.
