the 7/8" for the center ridge board..but isn't that based on the 8:12 pitch, what about a different pitch like 3:12?
Yes, the 7/8" rafter length for the 3/4" (half the ridge thickness) is for the 8/12 pitch only. A different pitch would have a slightly different rafter length deduction, but of course with only 3/4" run, it would be a small difference. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the informative visualization and comprehensive descriptions
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
I used the square common rafter calculation of 14.42 x 4 the run it come out to be 57.68. How do I get the 71.250
The 71.25" is the rafter length from the side of the ridge to the end of the overhang (rafter tail). You use one half the span of the building (4' in this case), add 12" overhang, and subtract 3/4" for half of the ridge thickness. You use this run number to calculate the overall rafter length of 71.25". Thanks for watching!

I bought the book toward the end of my framing career, so I learned a lot in the field. The upside of that is, I can confirm that everything Ive read in the book is accurate. I see some folks on here calling out the method of determining ridge length. I framed for more than two decades. True hips, bastard hips, etc. On a true hip roof, the thickness of the ridge determines the run for your common rafters, even the king commons. If you deduct both king common runs from the overall building length, your ridge will always have a ridge length that is length minus depth plus the thickness of the ridge. The book describes this thoroughly. I agree with the book wholeheartedly and have used this method in the field many times. Great book and incredible service to the roof construction field.
Great! Thanks so much Robert.
Enjoy your roof framing videos, would like to see some new content for 2025. BTW, your “Roof Framer’s Bible” is fantastic!
I appreciate that. We plan to do more. Thanks for watching!
This guy didn't invent the book he copied A.F.J Riechers book called the Full lenghth roof framer . It also was a little blue book but it was originally written in 1917 before this guy was born
The Riechers book was indeed published in 1917, but I certainly didn't copy his book. Neither of us invented math! As a young carpenter I used the Riechers book for years. However, when I began doing very complicated bastard hip roofs, which are not covered in the Riechers book, I decided to publish an updated manual that included a great many roof configurations not covered in Riechers. Roof Framer's Bible is an updated and comprehensive text for roof framing. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the great explanations but the original Full lenghth roof framing blue book was originally written in 1917 by A.F.J. Riechers . This guy is acting like he invited a book from someone else

A.F.J. Riechers book of Full length roof framing was written before this guy was born. In 1917 !
Riechers is an excellent text for it's time. As a young carpenter I used one for years. Roof Framer's Bible is an updated and more comprehensive reference for roof framing.
Absoluter Blödsinn. Ein sparrendach ohne wiederlager . Die Wände werden nach außen gedrückt. Ohne first mit Pfosten geht gar nichts! Grüße vom zimmerermeister aus Deutschland
You are absolutely correct if this were a real structure. This was a model to illustrate the rafter lengths and wasn't intended to be a comprehensive discussion of ceiling ties, ridge posts, and/or structural ridges. I have received several comments such as yours pointing this out. I certainly didn't mean to cause any confusion, but I was trying to limit the scope of the discussion. A great many of the viewers are inexperienced and I was trying to keep it basic. Thank you for your thoughtful comments. And thanks for watching in Germany!
Include longer Roof Eaves in the discussion also.
All the framing material shown is 1 1/2" thick. The size of the rafters is determined by the overall run of the rafter, the loads imposed on the rafter, and the lumber species. For instance if you are in an area of heavy snow load the rafters would have to be sized accordingly. Often 2x4 rafters are fine for a small shed. If you have longer tails (overhangs) on the rafters then you have to be careful that you don't over cut the birdsmouth and therefore reduce the cross section of the rafter over the wall to the point that the tail breaks off over the wall. The pitch of the roof is a factor in determining how much "meat" is left in the rafter above the birdsmouth cut. If this is a concern, it is OK to cut the birdsmouth notch smaller (doesn't have full bearing on the wall plate) so as to maximize the wood over the birdsmouth. I don't want to make this overly complicated, but there are a few factors to consider. It depends on your individual requirements. Thanks for watching!
❤❤❤❤ Thank you so much
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
If you've built and lived with this family of coop before you know that this guy knows what he's talking about from experience when he uses the batons. A determined dog or coyote will make quick work of just staples.
This Irregular Hip/Val tutorial is a great example of “Somethings are Easier Done than Said”. The real secret of all Hip/Val Rafter cuts, Equal or Unequal Pitch is to Mark the effective Length on the board before making any cuts. Do not cut the Head Cut cheeks nor the Birds Mouth, Just mark the length at the top shoulder of the Rafter Board, apply the Plumb H/V Pitch lines, at the Heel, apply the HAP dimension and draw the Level Seat-Cut line. At the ridge end of the H/V perform the Appropriate Bevel Cut(s). At the Seat Cut, if including the Tail, and not using the Plan-View Miter bevels add some clearance to clear the Plate Line Corner. This Unbacked Hip will fit perfectly w/o the need for adding a “Hip-Drop’ correctional adjustment. If you think you need to Back-Bevel the H/V rafters, allow for them or cut them first then proceed with the marking process. I do not know why this Simple Geometry has been missed by all the Experts in Roof Cutting since the beginning of the Trade, but the only book I have researched that does not include a “Hip-Drop” adjustment explanation is the “Swanson’s Blue Book”. The Pictures say a thousand words. Btw, Irregular H/V Rafters are not equally split or centered like Regular H/V Rafters, the Lay-out Footprint shows/results in a proportional placement as to keep the HAPs equal at the perpendicular related Pitch Bevels. Long-to-Short (Parallel Relationship) of both the Plumb/Pitch Cuts and the Cheek-Cut Bevels.
Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful comments. You are absolutely correct that most carpenters, even experienced carpenters, have difficulty in visualizing the cuts and angles. Your pragmatic approach to these issues by marking it out in full scale is a very effective way to visualize and execute these angles. Thank you for watching and contributing to the understanding of these roof systems.
My short and simple reply . . . For (“More Perfect") Irregular Hip/Val roofs, the “Effective Tail lengths” should be detailed to include or from the outside of the Fasia materials to the bearing plates (HAPs) so that the equal dimension of the materials is properly accounted for and keeping the H/V line intersecting the at the outer long-points Fascia Corner Miters.

Hello @roofFramersbible, where can we buy the plans?
www.cottonriverfarm.com/store/p/hoopcoopplans Thanks for watching!
Once I followed same principle with my son still not reaching exactly. Wondering where did it go wrong ?
It is important to remember that the rafter lengths should always be measured along the top edge of the rafter. One of the most common errors is measuring to opposite sides of the rafter. Perhaps that was the issue. Thanks for watching!
Do this book calculate the measurements for a Shed roof Rafters?? I have sewn but ome. Video on bow to do shed roof ...can you do a Shed roof rafters, detailed video.??
Yes, the book gives the rafter lengths for shed roofs. I don't have a video specifically for a shed roof, but the same principles apply. A shed roof is figured like one half of a gable roof. The same principles of rise and run apply. Just get your rafter run and use it to get the rafter length. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Great video

Best thing is to get trusses lot easier
Trusses have their place, but as with anything they have their pros and cons. For many applications stick-built roofs are the preferred solution. Thanks for watching!
I live in South Carolina. I am building a house and I need a roof structure engineer. Do you know any in South Carolina? Thank you!
Sure! Call Residential Structures, Inc. They have offices in both North and South Carolina. Kevin and Cory Munson can handle all of your engineering needs. Thanks for watching!
I am building a new house. I have a floorplan plan, 19:46 but it doesn't include the roof structure. Do you know where can I go to get that information. Great video! Blessings!!
There is a great deal more to a house plan than just a floor plan. You can put any number of different roof configurations on the same floor plan. Builders often do this to spice up the neighborhood. The architect would typically draw all aspects of a house plan. including the elevations, floor plan, roof plan. Once you have a plan illustrating the roof configuration, the next step is to get the engineering done. Generally roof systems will either be prefabricated trusses or "stick built". The truss company would provide the engineering for the trusses. The engineer of record for the project would design a stick-built roof and provide a roof plan that shows the location and sizes of the rafter members. Thanks for watching!
@RoofFramersBible Thank you for your answer! I live in south Carolina do you know a engineer that can do the roof plan for us? Blessings!!!
really elegant, clear, useful presentation.Thankyou, really.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
I have your book absolutely love it and i have will holidays roof cutters secret and the workbook by will holiday the complicated roof i learnt roofing myself and still learning wayne from the 🇬🇧

What type off framing square did you use during the building off this roof i was going to purchase the chappel framing square the metric version has im in the uk but i like the framing square your using
It is just an inexpensive aluminum square from Johnson Level and Tool.
One thing wrong. The ridge length is determined by rafter thickness not ridge thickness. It’s only ridge thickness if the ridge happens to be the same as the commons.
Thanks for the thoughtful reply. Thanks for watching!
Is it possible that you can give me a recommendation on a framer in cradle Los Angeles area? I’m gonna build the house which contains gazebo and the house hundred percent up heatproof through your expertise. Do you know anybody currently a great framer that’s mostly does hip roofs if you can send me the information, greatly appreciated, contact number or something I want to thank you in advance for your help
Unfortunately I can't help you with that. I worked in the southeast US and never had any contacts in California. Best of luck on your build. Thanks for watching!
Too much gabbling, not enough visual work..😴😴
Build a roof it’s easy. 😂😂😂 maybe when it’s five feet wide. Show us one that’s fora house 32 feet wide and todays pitches of like 8 and 12 with 12” overhang and 10 foot ceilings. It’s all easy till someone is throwing 2x8 that’s 20feet long at ya on a widow maker 20 feet off the ground
I suppose I should have said simple instead of easy. No doubt framing is hard work, but after framing hundreds I still love it. Thanks for watching!

Sir,question if we drop the sit cut the bottom of the eave has to be cut as well to keep the same high with common rafters eave?thank you
True. If you drop the hip instead of backing the corners of the hip, then yes, the soffit cut of the hip rafter would be trimmed off by the same amount. Thanks for watching!
Very good thanks for the info
Thanks for watching!
Pitch and slope aren't the same thing.
True. There are decided different views on use of those terms in different parts of the country. In the end it only really matters to those who already know everything about it, so I just didn't go there.
10:12 still don't know how you got 57 and three quarter? are you using pythagoras?
He measured it to show what it was, but you could use the chart on the framing square or the rafter book to calculate it.
Thank you so much for sharing all this knowledge. Do you have a video that shows how to figure out the angles and compound cuts for blocks for the valleys and hips?
We haven't made a video on that yet. We'll take a look at it. Thanks for watching!
OMG... 1/4, 3/8, 1/16, 3/4....... metric is so much simpler!
Without a doubt it is, but we are comfortable with it. I can't imagine yelling out a measurement of 1876 mils. Sounds so strange. Thanks for watching!
