Hello all, I have moved this post from the wrong section to this section and the above link has the architects drawings which relate to my question.
I am pitching a new 45 degree pitch roof into an existing 37 degree pitched roof. Wrightwoodwork explained the method of using lay boards, however this method I am familiar with but thank you all the same.
Once you have looked at the drawings it will be much clearer than myself trying to explain it in my mumbo jumbo way. The drawing shows the Valley beams go in at 45 degrees from the ridge to their respective corners, but I don't think they will and in which lays my confusion. To my mind, the valley beam intersecting a 45 degree pitch and 37 degree pitch roof would not go in at 45 degrees, I might be overthinking this one, but any help would be gratefully received.
