I've probably watched 10's of 1000's of videos on RUclips over the years. I literally COULD NOT MOVE ON without tipping the person who went to THIS MUCH EFFORT to make this outstanding presentation. Surely I'm not the only one that feels they've gotten $5 value from it. Come on people... Support content creators!
Hey that's cool if that's what you want to do man. Everyone here watching the video is supporting. people commenting are supporting. Some guy who tipped $10 probably thinks you're a cheapo for only throwing a 5er. Maybe it's all just perspective and we should we each just do our own thing? How about that
My man you're a awesome teacher and video maker. Your stuff is fantastic seriously. If you did a 101 course for dummies it'd be a smash. Please more. Smile. Be encouraged because you've mastered this. Smile
This is SWEET, I love what you've done with this video here. The future of construction detail education is here. I am doing very similar things to you right now, love this.
0:28 You got a 👍🏻 and subscribe simply for the professional demonstration of the termite shield. The Saginaw Holiday Inn Lounge music was what sold me.
It did not cover everything. One important piece of information was left out. On the gambrel and mansard roofs where is the load going? Is it going down onto the inner box that’s unsupported or is it going down the outer steep pitched rafters?
Thank you. i took a loss control consulting gig and it includes property assessments (I normally do only industrial assessments for workers' comp). The client gave me drawings of the types of roofs but yours explained and demonstrated each type. Thank you for showing famous construction and describing each roof.
Great video! Nicely prepared. I live in a concave mansard built in 1880, the interior walls are pitched, which is contrary to the "box" style described here. The walls in the roof are straight for the first 3 feet then they are pitched to the ceiling. I've been trying to figure out how it was framed, any chance you could make a follow up video? Really great stuff.
While the 'species' of these frames are all described well and shown in great detail, it should be specified (for anyone interested in classical building methods) that these are all examples of stick frame designs, rather than true, traditional timber frame ones. Significantly more lumber is used, cut to much slimmer dimensions, to accommodate post-50s building methods, regulations, manufacturing techniques, and economies of scale in regard to the availability of wood, generally. Very informative video.
I'm so glad I bumped into your video! I've been staring at the rooflines of what is a lovely house. Yeah, those rooflines. They couldn't have tried any harder to make the top of our house look like the crew got to a point, just did enough to call it a roof. Some of the crew were earlier than others for beer-thirty. They were the only guys working the inside of the open ceiling. Others in this house think I should be sent away as dotty, but I swear this white loaf of bread roof is on juuuuust a little crooked. Now all I can do is stare at it. This vid was/is a great inro, especially with people that do so much better seeing something visual. It is the best way to teach some. It's the only way you can teach others. Adults and kids with ADHD are like that. You have to keep the adults and kids like that busy, too. Destructive little cusses if you turn your back on them.😂😳🤯
The roof pitch isn't simply a style. In areas that do not get snow you can play around with whatever pitch you want and it's just a style thing, but anywhere that gets an appreciable amount of snow during the winter requires a steep enough pitch to shed the snow before it builds up enough to collapse the roof. Look at places known for steep rooves, they will be places that typically accumulate snow throughout the winter, or they are places that can expect very large single events that drop a lot of snow.
Houses used to be designed to be more in touch with their environment like your saying to be resilient against snow and other elements. Engineering has come a long way with roof systems and nowadays the snow load is calculated in the roof load/rafter sizing so you can have whatever pitch you want pretty much.
I’m one of those people who get a question and I can’t let it go. Yesterday I was driving and was thinking about how a hip roof is framed. Of course I didn’t know it was called a hip roof but I do now. Thanks for entertaining and quick education on roof designs. Now I know!
Damn. I'm not a roofer. I've never framed a roof, but this video gave me a much better understanding of how the framing works. Granted there is a lot to designing these rooftops, and I believe this info is delivers very well. Thank you for the effort. I loved the graphics.
I know it’s made for designers but as a carpenter just starting out this is a great tool just to familiarize with roof systems and their terms before my first time helping with a roof
Thank you for the video. From my engineering standpoint I would recommend constructing the mansard soo that the load points are placed on the wall and not offset.
At the 5:36 mark, the ridge is supported by two studs. Do these studs remain in place under the ridge after the roof is constructed? Because if they do, we are left with a couple of load bearing studs in the middle of the room.
It really depends on a few things but typically when you have ceiling joists 16” o.c tied to each rafter the ridge is non structural and these posts arent needed. But when you have a cathedraled room with no ceiling joists and that ridge is structural you would usually need those posts to come down to a beam in the ceiling system or post down to the floor system below or have tension cables/trusses in cathedral etc. because that roof will want to push those walls outward. But really depends on your scenario (Always hire a licensed engineer/ architect before doing structural work) Tried to explain best I could hope that helps
@@bruniarchitecture Thank you, that is very helpful. I did plan to have a cathedral ceiling and I will take your advice to engage a licensed engineer/architect to design it.
Nice video. Great explanation. You left out single slope roof (shed) which is similar to a flat roof, but is constructed differently. Single slope is minimalist modern style.
I wonder if on te gambrel roof it would be acceptable to put the sole plates directly inline with the wall, so the roof overhung (increasing its internal size)
@@bruniarchitecture Yaaa Bruni, some very good stuff. Here I am prepping to build a shed and I got some good education. Thank you! As a film maker this education, I feel, has opened up a new way of thinking about buildings.
First time watching your work, good job BD. I'm so 'old school'---I loved the elevation sketch at the end of the video. A hand sketch is a tool-right just like a pencil. Thanks for sharing.
I forgot to ask; are you using Sketchup for the model and video work. Or a different video capture software? Also are you sure that you're not a radio DJ, that voice---OMG. you can probably get more work as a voice-over actor. Just saying-uhmmm; you got skills! Good Luck-BD!!!
Okay-I have heard of Rhino, incredibly it looks a lot like SKP. Heard of Lumion too although not used that software. Yeah just saying, check into 'Voice-over' work you can probably work from home too---don't know how it all works. Ever heard of Pixar?
Great Video. I will be building a small one story 8/12 pitch home and trying to decide between a gable or hip roof. Is there a big difference in costs between the two?
Hey thanks 👍 It really depends on the spans of the hips and if you have to use lvls. A hipped roof is more labor intensive as there is more cutting and measuring. On a gable you take one measurement and every rafter is the same.
Stumbled to this because I am that kind of person that usually needs visual presentation in order to understand things. Which is also why I hated online classes because it takes out the hands-on approach in all laboratory exercises.
@@bruniarchitecture i moved to Romania where I now live, and I've visited Sibiu a couple of times, it's weird roofs stalk you 🙂 in the region where I now live, Northern Romania, there's a different style of roof, the locals call it "cu clop”, which means "with a strawhat". It holds no functional role, except to make use of shorter rafters, because they where hand hewn back then. It's common here to have houses 60-90 years old, but nowadays, even with the availability of milled lumber, it still goes on, it's like a tradition and a specific look. If you have an email I can send you a Google street view to see some of those roofs.
I also have pictures from the house where I now live, though it's not so interesting, except some of the lumber is either used round, or lightly hewn. Structurally it looks like the gambrel roof, but with much less wood, but thicker.
I think the gambrel roof seems the most rational. Gives you the most space and has all the benefits and isn't overly complicated. What is the benefit of a hip roof or mansard? Looks like it just adds an extra slope for no reason, with more complicated construction. Am I missing something?
This is really one of the most impressively constructed videos I've ever seen on RUclips. What an amazing tutorial. Thank you so much.
Thanks I really appreciate it!
@@bruniarchitecture your the real top g
Great video, what software is best for hobbies house design? Similar to what you used on the roofs, thanks!

It did not cover everything. One important piece of information was left out. On the gambrel and mansard roofs where is the load going? Is it going down onto the inner box that’s unsupported or is it going down the outer steep pitched rafters?
The load is transferred to the floor joists 16” o.c. below. Then to exterior walls then down to foundation.
This Presentation Was EXCELLENT!!!

U can also mix radiant heating if it's a problem but even with large snow you will still see flat roof especially in commercial

Very good explanation. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Robert 👍
Like learning more bout the roofing game currently 5 years into metal roofing

You forgot the shed roof, or single slope. This type is probably in the top 3 most common, particularly on smaller buildings.
