Hmmm this sounds interesting. Just trying to figure out what you mean though! Cant quite picture it..Can you explain bit further please? Which area do the rafters sit on the front of the roof?

Insulation is going to be 50mm thick. If I extend a frame out from the ceiling joists, would this not be an issue structurally as usually the bird mouth sits on the wall plate above the door/window and balances out the weight of the roof?

This is going to be a new roof.
