andr0id 3 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 First, is there a technical name for this type of shed roof that is split and then has a row of windows? I want to build my barn/workshop with this type of roof, BUT I will not have a bearing wall under those windows. My garage door will be on the side where the single window is right now. I know that it would be built by putting in a truss with a ledger to attach the lower rafters, but I'm not sure how to get Chief to do that. Does anyone have a sample plan that is this kind of roof that I could sing along to? Link to post Share on other sites
ricatic 12 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Did you mean "clerestory"? Link to post Share on other sites
andr0id 3 Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Thanks, that's a pretty decent little tutorial and it got me a lot farther than before. It's builds a ledger and the wall above, no truss or header though, so I've got to keep tinkering. Link to post Share on other sites
