Love watching how things are done in the US with the different terminology. In the UK we call that a valley. Two layboards and a ridgeboard, with diminishing jack rafters. We don't sheath the roofs over here for this to be done. Straight over the trusses, which is fun in the rain, before the roof is felted and battened and then tiled. Your channel is a great watch and I've been a subscriber for well over two years now. From one joiner UK/ Framer US to another, keep up the good work my friend.

Boy its nice having a helper or two that know whats going on. What a pain it is doing ANYTHING with someone who doesn't know what they're doing but won't admit it or admit it to themselves they don't know what they're doing. I've found it easier, even though physically its harder, to just work alone then with someone who won't listen and doesn't want to learn. Good helpers are so hard to come by now a days. They wanna run the show but can't predict what you're next move will be when doing the most basic of stuff. Great team work guys. Thats how its done.

Aye man I understand this so much. I just started framing last year dec 2020. And my boss has been doing it for 25 years. Everything he teaches me I take in and use on every house we build. We've built 15 homes or so since December and I still am no where near perfect. But shits awesome and a great career. We've gone through 10+ guys who don't wanna work hard. All guys are nowadays are lazy and expect everything on a silver platter. And it's annoying.

I frame and videos/books don't mean nothing until you actually do it, and I am talking from experience. Perfect example is stair openings and roof plans. These videos barely get into the details. On the custom homes that I have framed in GA, the roof framing plan is always off. Engineers will show valleys in areas that you can over-frame, or show odd details that go against construction methods on things like dormers, etc.

I developed a trick years ago working on huge homes .. When figuring out the lengths of jack rafters , Whether they are on sleepers , natural valleys or hips . My method isn't worth using when you only have 3 rafters per side though . But when you are working on a-16"- 35' hip or valley .. and the layout is 16" oc or even 19.2 ".. It's the sweetest , fastest , most accurate and safest way to do a fill in . Don't even have to do a layoff on the hip/valley !! .. The method is like The CDL" Common Length Difference that can be found on a Construction Master .. But refined !! . . It can be a little complex for some to grasp at first but when learned it is Sooooooo Easy . .. Explanation .. after a layout is pulled from a parallel rafter top and bottom . Most will measure from the ridge to sleeper layout to get the rafter length . Works fine . But if you have a very long sleeper and 20 rafters per side . That's a lot of measuring . Layout the one longest rafter and get it's length . and the layout to the 2nd to the shortest valley rafter . Subtract the shortest from the longest and then divide by the amount of rafters .. Then you end up with a Constant !! .. Log in the longest rafter in a calculator and subtract the Constant .. Write down each length and the numbers will return to the 2nd to the last rafter . then subtract The Constant 1 more for the last . . Now you never had to layout the sleeper besides the first and last , And all that has to be done is layout the ridge , Intermittently install every 4th rafter to the ridge and shake it straight and nail to the sleeper without a layout . . It will come out perfect . .. Now on a natural valley or hip . A little different . The difference is the measurement to the heel .. " Do Not Use The Heel as the Constant !! . .. Layout only the longest hip jack rafter and the 2nd to the last . Do Not use the heel as the Constant !! .. Now measure up from the heel sweep to HPCL .." Heel Plumb Cut Line " and measure the rafter .. Do this on the longest and the shortest .. Convert the rise of the heel . Record those 2 numbers . Subtract the shortest from the longest . Out will come a Constant . Subtract that Constant from the longest and it will return to 2nd to the shortest . On a Construction Master . It has a CLD for every pitch . Throw that shit away .. It only works in a perfect world and it will not take into consideration the miniscule errors which is all framing . Many will erect scaffolding and brace hips and valleys straight , Derive their layoffs from the straightest common rafter in the background . Rafters are straightest and most accurate to refer to at the very top and bottom .. In the middle . they either have to have Eagle Eye laid on it , straight to be referred to and someone sliding the tape downhill in tandem to get marks .. Which is a waste of time in my method . Then get individual heel sweep measurements in tandem .. Which is a waste of time . .. My method spits out all rafters lengths without having to dangle like a monkey and hold a tape . . The additional sweet thing is .. Not only no layoffs on the hip , No need for braces to straighten the hip or valley .. Use every 4th rafter as a brace to control the hip .. Once nailed on the plate /bird's mouth . nail to the hip and it will be within a 1/32 " accurate .. I have blown others minds and many carpenters said " It won't work , It'll take too long , Can't work " until they see it happen and fall in love with it . Though many have a hard time grasping the procedure . Once learned .. It takes a whole lot less effort. labor , is laser accurate and amazingly only 1 minute to figure . I use this method of math for framing sloped walls without measuring but twice . I use this method for calculating every piece of siding on a gable . a dormer .. Especially a dormer .. In that case . 3 numbers input and I can cut every piece perfect with a perfect clear straight roof clearance . .. Last piece of advice for even seasoned carpenters .. Some people call out their numbers in feet and inches , others call them out in inches . Some say 167 -3/16" some will say 13' -11-3/16" others will say 167.1875" and some will say 167-3 . I strongly advocate calling out fractions by their 16ths .. A 1/4 " is now a 4 .. 3/4 " is now a 12 . .. less confusion if the numbers are 3 ,6 , and 12 instead of 3/16, 3/8 and 3/4 less writing .. Works best for example when framing a wall on an uneven slab .. If The base number for example is 145 " or 12'-1".. and the studs don't really vary too radically and seemingly hover around the base number . Then no need to write each stud out .. 145-3/16 " then a 145-1/4 " than a 145 -1/4 " than a 145-5/16" .. Write simply 3-4-4-5 .. Wood is wood and has its variables , You can never efficiently build a house with the accuracy of a Swiss Watch and remain profitable ..The best way to become efficient and more accurate without even thinking . Is learn shortcuts

Question for those out there, to get the length of the valley rafters, how did they square up the plate on the roof to the ridge when they were doing 24” centers? In other words, where do you place the end of the tape on the roof plates (laying flat) so that your 90 degrees to the ridge? Thanks, Garry.
@22KingRancher
2 жыл бұрын
normally we just hook another rafter and pull layout from that, which he mentioned doing. they did that off camera and made a mark on the valley where the layout landed, then measured to the mark. hopefully that makes sense. essentially they pulled their tape measure as parallel to the ridge as possible where it would land on the valley from a previously installed rafter. you can also figure it out mathematically but thats more work.

Hey Matt so I noticed u didn't have the guys measure for the valley cuts. Are u using the formula to get the valley cuts or did I not notice someone pulling numbers? I'm trying to get faster methods to tie up the roof. From wat I remember for 6/12 roof the measurement goes up by 4 foot 6 for valley cuts. I'm assuming u get the valley cut snapped and then u just pull the top number. Am I correct. Thanks in advance. Love your channel.

Just asking from an efficiency standpoint. Maybe it was crowned the wrong way?
