Laying out flaired hips for a cupola roof
มุมมอง 1.2K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Here is how I constructed this small cupola roof with flaired hips. I was able to diagram it out in a few minutes in both cross section and plan view before cutting. Taking a few minutes to draw these details out, can save hours when it comes to cutting and installing. I hope this helps! Please ask away with questions!
How I calculate the common difference for cheek wall studs for shed dormers
มุมมอง 2712 ปีที่แล้ว
Here is a quick video showing how I calculate the common difference between studs on a shed dormer cheek wall. This can be done with any pitches the same way. In this video the two pitches I was working with were 10/12 and 3.5/12.
Layout and calculating jacks on irregular hips and valleys.

This is my system for laying out jacks on irregular hips and valleys. It can be done on regular hips and valleys too…but those are much simpler, and many of these steps are unnecessary…..
Laying out a swooped roof

Placing a chimney at the convergence of a cathedral hip roof
มุมมอง 2152 ปีที่แล้ว
This was a tricky detail, where a false chimney, with a thick stone veneer, was placed at the top of an unequal hip roof, on the coast, subject to high wind loads. This is how I did it!

Equal overhangs different pitches
มุมมอง 2612 ปีที่แล้ว
This is how I layout a roof with different pitches, while still maintaining equal fascia and overhangs.

    How do you know your radius is 6 feet ? Does the plan specify it or is there a way to find it .?

    Hello Ben, Very interesting process, thank you for sharing. Would like to know more about where this project was located? Which geographies do you build in? I have a project that requires a moment frame and would like to connect with you if you are open to a conversation. Thank you

    A lost art, I'm building one now but just a simple 4 sided roof. I hope you get paid really well because few people know how to do this stuff anymore.

    You guys gotta plastic those soffits? I’m assuming there finished underneath? I bet that sucks. Not only was the lift perfect but the “pewffff…” was perfect.

      @@benmorton3199 So I just started it on my own. I have a line on some great work where I am. I was looking at cranes and lulls, and picked up an 844 Genie and a swivel carriage. It’s awesome. However, I did see these while I was shopping around. I know it’s the machine to have. Especially with the remote controls. (I’m imagining just chillin on the platform, having a guy run down and rig the load and booming it up) possibilities are endless I’m sure. I didn’t look seriously at them though because of the price. I don’t know what it is, I didn’t even think about it, I just knew it’s not realistic for me now. I’ll get a quote on my own but roughly how much is it? 300Gs? Or more? Thanks

      @mikegrizzly4188 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I got some quotes back this week. With a swivel carriage, truss boom and a platform, I was right in there. Kind of surprised. I could see these things going for a lot more.

    Can’t wait till I get mine. I’ll tried a demo machine in a couple of hour and so far I loved it! Please do some more vids with the remote control. I order it with driving possibilities with the remote :)

      I definitely will! I have a bunch of remote control videos on Instagram, I’ll get some on here. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the remote driving added to this….I would have gladly done it otherwise!
