This video explains how to do a simple hip roof for a rectangular building in AutoCAD. If you are interested in one on one tutoring you can head over to reacheducationalservices.com/... and book a session with me.
I know so many shortcuts to make that process shorter but. No cap. The best video I've ever watched on RU-vid. I learnt from your process and I learnt from your errors. How can I get such a great experience from learning something. Thanks a lot. I hope you're considering creating more content because this helped me a lot. I knew nothing about these roofs but learnt so much and I haven't even finished yet. (Exam in 8 hrs.)
Thank you so much for the kind words. I do plan on creating more content. I've just been researching as a few of my videos need updating. Including this one, I hope the exam was ok.
The angle of the hip depends on the angle of the 2 roof sections it is joining. If they are the same pitch, then it is 45 degrees. If they are different pitches, then it will vary depending on the pitchs.
Good day, if you mean that your 45 degree lines on the left are not meeting up with the ones one right exactly in the centre then you would have to check to ensure that your roof or the section of the roof that you are drawing is a perfect rectangle. If you're saying that the 45 degree lines are not meeting up with the ones in the opposite corner, this will only happen if your building is square and that would be a pyramid roof and not a hip roof like the one in the video. Let me know if my comment helped.
The ridge is shown and this is a simple hip roof so there are no valleys. Here is a link to a video that explains how to draw the ridge details ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_0IhHzolKhU.htmlsi=1CsWl5glDBAF448m
Not sure exactly which part of the video you are referring to but there is more than way to do a lot of things in AutoCAD and suggestions are always welcome so thank you Josh.
The floor plan has to be represented in the roof plan in broken lines and also you need the outer walls of the floor plan to get the overhang of the roof. Turning off the floor plan after getting the overhang could be done though.
