RayWeed Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Gargage Roof.pdfHi, I'm using CA 12. I am trying to add a shed roof from, in this case, a concrete apron, to the main roof of my structure (picture explains it much better than I am). I know this is a loaded and broad question but how do you do this? I can't find a tutorial online. I think I have to add a post and beam on 3 sides to get a gable wall, but is there a way to make the two roofs tie together? Any help would be appreciated.
