Indy. In a nutshell.
As we are as thick as two short planks with regard to files, cutting and pasting etc, refer back to your previous post. What do you think of these plans? Posted Mon Aug 27, 2012 10:34 am.
The front elevation of the new extension shows a corner half hip. A true corner hip will be for the dormer window to be omitted and the hip rafter to extend from the abutment of the ridge and the existing house down to ground floor wall plate, but in your case it could work out to be irregular pitch. all depends on measures and pitch.
Corner hips are normally found in a single storey lean to wrap round extension, or single storey lean to extension with either corner hip to front and back or to one end only.
Roof as shown is feasible to a good stick and throw lad, but there will be few complications bottom of dormer window frame. Could be made a lot easier with a bit of thought.
