__________________________________
The Oblique Roof
An oblique roof, also known as a skewed or slanted roof, refers to a roof that does not have a symmetrical pitch or slope.
Instead of meeting at a central ridge line, as in traditional gabled roofs, the two planes of an oblique roof might meet off-centre or have different slopes.
This design choice can be both functional and aesthetic. For instance, an oblique roof might direct rainwater or snow to a particular side of a building, or it might be chosen simply for its unique and contemporary appearance.

When I hear plumbers and electricians that are demanding 350-400 a day and us fellow chippys are snuffed at when you suggest anywhere near that I’d say watch the dans and robins of this world not for 1 second suggesting I’m in that league but merely that carpentry is overlooked sometimes especially if you do all aspects (well). Thankyou for this video was a great watch

@neilrafferty2097 Of course they are. Speaking as retired local authority data developer who does relatively heavy duty diy. Might depend on where you live and what client base you can build up, but... putting roof over a family's head, electrics, water: things that are a matter of life and death if done badly. Far more important than bankers, lawyers, etc. You're worth being able to afford a nice home in a place you want to live not far from most of your customers, at least one holiday a year, running a depreciation account in your business, all the memberships and insurance your trade requires, paying into a good pension scheme, have enough to spare if you have to take time off due to illness, family pressures, caring for elderly parents. It's inflated house prices that mean all cash goes on mortgages. Folk blanch at paying you what you're worth. You can't afford to take your time to do the best job you'd like to do for job satisfaction.

Regardless of whether you understand this video first time (& u will get it after a few watches) just asking the roofer how he is doing it is so fascinating.. & now you know !

@RobNorman08 6 месяцев назад

This is what makes our job (as a roofing carpenter) so interesting, the grey matter is constantly being challenged, there is no better feeling than standing back once a roof is framed knowing that it all worked out perfectly! You could also have found the position of the crown rafter on a scale drawing by using a pair of compasses set to the length of the common rafter length and striking an arc from the last pair of commons to the new wall plate, really enjoyed both of the videos on this build. 👍

@bdizzle7633 6 месяцев назад

Although dans working out was needed prior to establish the position of the last commons with the offset crown.

@RobNorman08 6 месяцев назад

@@bdizzle7633 Agreed, Dans method worked a treat, there are alternative ways to find the point at which the crown strikes the ridge also but this was a great example 👍

i love dans nervious lets try at the start when asked about explaining it. then knocks it ouit of the park with a very clear explination that makes perfect sence. iv done over 20 roofs in the last few years and was nervious about trying something like that but dans explination makes it very easy to understand and go about constructing

@timothykeech7394 6 месяцев назад

On plan, it's just a problem of similar triangle and symmetrical kite shapes. In 3 dimensions it presents a lot of odd angle cuts. Did you work these out by trial and error or can it be calculated? You described the differences from the usual 45 degree cuts but I just wondered where those figures came from. Obviously, you have to have all the rafters at the same gradient to maintain a plane surface - hence your geometric design. Fascinating.

great video, just wondering about the roof tiles, do they run parallel with the fascia and therefore on an angle or square with main roof meaning more rows one side than the other?

They run with the fascia but the courses on each side don't quite match. Luckily the hip tile will cover it and you will never notice unless you fly into Heathrow.
