no, he meant plumb. The trusses needed to be plumb, and at the same elevation to meet the same plane. If the truss wasn't plumb, then the sheathing wouldn't plane off when he got around to it.
it's just extra nailer because those trusses are pre-fabbed dogshit. In a real dormer, the jack-rafters are beveled to the roof slope so there is more bearing area with whatever surface they're contacting. These trusses don't appear to be beveled on the bottom, they're just square dimensional lumber. This means the only contact area is the very back edge as it meets the roof sheathing, with no support under the front edge. To compensate for this poor technique and lack of strength, the guy is putting 2x4s flat behind, nailing that into the rafters, and then nailing through the front of the truss into the flat.
@TheFloorStalker You are correct. The carpenters did not make the call on how this area is filled. It’s all designed by Engineers. Although I have never seen this method, it’s usually a cut and stack because it’s a small area. In Cali we call it a California fill.
I don't believe I've seen an architect ever call out that type of framing. But then, I guess people can come up with a lot of shortcuts when using trusses. Maybe this is legal in some places. The result.....in 50 years....will only tell if it should have been done differently.
Wrong! Not only did they waste about $300 worth of plywood, they have no valley blocks tying the two roofs together. This is amateur framing. No way would this pass in Florida. If so, it’s a rookie inspector
You cant say that because you have no fuckind idea what is underneath that sheathing, how heavy the load is, if there is snow, or what the engineer called for. Probably never hammered a nail in your life shut the fuck up kid lol.
Excellent video, you did a great job breaking everything down extremely simply & easy to understand/ comprehend.
"It's a little bit off, but that's okay"
I'm a former machinist turned carpenter. Going from a .003 tolerance to a .375 tolerance sis refreshing.
At 5:48, I learned a nice tip on marking the long 6 pitch on the speed square.
Best tutorial ever explaining a trussed calif valley.
Very well explained and demonstrated, you should make more videos.
You were correct when you said level. Plumb is vertical and level is horizontal. Great video and keep up the great work! 👍🏻

This was really, really helpful. Please make more videos!
Thanks for the trick cutting long 6 best actually only explanation for finding this crucial angle
You're very detailed thanks
Great video buddy,
keep it up man, you will only get better.
Good job explaining
Great video!
That was interesting at the end when you laid that 2 by flat. More info please

Great carpenter
Why don't you the length of timber on the down hill side of valley trusses to prevent them sliding
because this is cheap work.
Thanks 🙏 thanks bro
Хелоу, Гарик!!!! Very good job!!!))))
Привіт друже. Дякую
That’s amazing
thank you
I need to know what is the point of this ?? Just for the look ??
It appears to be non functional to me too.
For the water to run off the roof
🤩 🙏🛠👌💯
Ua good professional but improve sound system
Its better to use measurements for layout rather than strings alone better for decking because of the inconsistency of trusses nice vid though
Looks like new to roofing..no bearing support for yr valley trusses?? Flat on the ply??
These are fake dormers, Not practical space.

Explain
Still confused on how you got the string to level :/
Yupppppppp
We cut by hand
Long 6 yupppp
Did you actually triangulate ...???...woe
Volume all the way up and still couldn't here you

Ітс вери сатіфаїнг ту вотч дзіс
Anyone else drawn to the scarey drop with no safety rails or scaffolding to save workers at height if they take one wrong step 😳💀
Tornadoes tear that toilet paper apart
You have to put 2×8 or 2×10 under truss. What you did is wrong
Yeap .... wonder how many 'wrong' things builders put under 'brand new' houses
Different areas different codes. We dont have to put anything under trusses unless theyre piggybacked
You cant say that because you have no fuckind idea what is underneath that sheathing, how heavy the load is, if there is snow, or what the engineer called for. Probably never hammered a nail in your life shut the fuck up kid lol.

dont run the saws while you are filming, if you want people to watch.
I disagree it's like music. Man music 💪📐🔨 I think that the video is great 👍
