Synopsis

Master precise roof details with practical formulas and graphics
This book offers practical, step‑by‑step guidance for designing hip and valley roofs, with clear formulae and helpful graphics. It is a reliable reference for anyone involved in roof framing, purlins, hoppers, and pipe lines.

The content covers how to read and apply tabulated solutions, solve angles for any roof pitch, and locate working points on various hip and valley configurations. It emphasizes known data, such as roof pitch and plan angles, and provides both numerical and graphical methods to deliver accurate results.


  • How to use tabulated solutions for common roof cases and when to apply formulae for angles.

  • How to interpret working points, references to purlins, rafters, and flange planes, and how they affect cuts and joins.

  • Guidance on hoppers, bins, chutes, and pipe line bends to improve fabrication and performance.

  • Practical graphics and step‑by‑step methods to visualize intersections and angles.



Ideal for draftsmen, carpenters, and designers working on complex roof structures and related components.
