Good Morning,
Just a quick question please, when calculating the amount to drop the hip by, is the calculation based on half the 45 degree thickness of the hip or half the 90 degree thickness of the hip.
I have a 2 3/4" thick hip for degree pitch 10/12.
At 45 degrees it is 4 1/8" so half of this is 2 1/16" so....... forget the 16th
Rise = 10"
45 degree = 2"
Run = 16.97"
10 x 2 = 20
20 / 16.97 = 1"3/8 drop
Is this correct or is there a simpler way of working it out, any help will be appreciated as its doing my head in.
