Can't do it the way you have it drawn. Only two ways you can do that is bring that out as a third hip, just like the two big ones. Then you have to cricket both sides between the existing hips and the new one. Or do a shed roof tying into the two hips on the sides and sloping up and tying into the main roof on the back. Shed roof is your best option I think.

joining two sloped roofsThanks for your help , I was thinking of keeping the style similar to the rest of the house. Would the following work , where the join's are all at a slight down angle . What do you think. Regards Rob |

Thanks Sly, I was too tired to do that. Don't know if the hips are going to cause issues with it, always been gables when I've done them.
And, no, I would not do anything less than a 2.5 or 3/12. Anything less and you will have standing water and major problems in that long a run. Last edited by OldNBroken; 05-30-2010 at 03:58 AM. |

The hips will for sure be an high risk area the way they run 'die-out' into the valley, but if the roofer weaves not only the first four or five courses of shingles but also weaves the first same number of caps in with those weaved shingles the detail will work. I have done several of them, those really good 'creative' minded architects, they are always finding stuff like this to challenge framers & roofers.
