Crazy Tricky Roof

[Tryingtobezen]

Hello, I am just wondering what in the world I can do to build this roof line correctly. I have a hover scan but no upstairs layout to help with the auto roof build. It is kicking my butt!

This will be fun.. and thanks for sharing.  This is quite the roof line, I lost count on how many roof planes and all the different pitches.  But to answer your question on not having a "upstairs layout", I don't think you need one.  The shell should get you what you need to start with.  By looking at this 39 page attachment, with measurements, pitches and photos, I would think you could do this.  Page 5 gives you all the wall dimensions.. draw that profile first. Create second floor by using the same profile from below, then adjust accordingly by using the pictures.  Page 9 gives you the soffit depths.  Pages 11-18 give elevation profiles and more dims.  On page 32 a more detailed roof layout with ridge and valley dims.  Lastly, all the pictures of this house can get you a good idea on how exterior walls align, for example over the garage.  It's a lot, but I think you got this, just do one step at a time.

 

Curious on what "Hoover" is and what they do?  I like this document BTW...  

 

I am assuming your using Chief Premier, X17

I had a real quick go at it you need to check accuracy but show how to get basic shape of roof it might be helpful.

Thank you so very much!!! This is great! @Mark3D

 

Thank you so much for you feedback! Hover is an app that you use with a drone. You get the whole exterior of the house plan and it converts it to this information  @mtldesigns

Curious... did you take the pictures for hover? Are the footprint and window dimensions accurate?

I did a bit more it maybe helpful  do your own checks for accuracy
