Boilding a roof with bearing height, heel hight, overhang and slope
Not exactly what I was looking for, but I have a question. Your base offset indicates 12' and is shown as the bearing point. My 7'8 base offset is the bottom of the overhang. Is that a setting in how the roof is created. That would solve my problem even though it isn't what I was looking for.
I draw the roof boundary by picking walls and set overhang distances. I guess your boundary is manually draws, not by picking walls.
so this image shows more of what I am looking to get. Bearing is at the framing. Heel height is at the framing. this roof assembly I am showing is insulation above Alpine TrussSteel joist system. But I forgot to correct the overhang so it still shows from face of brick, but I would set from face of stud. But to get the bearing condition I want I need to set the parameters to an odd base offset. While not that difficult to do (obviously, I was able to do it), I'm looking for a method to construct the model in a manner that more closely matches the field.
