Roof Components 

Dang, all the other videos, and all that talk from my contractor, finally makes sense! Thank you!

Very good explanation. And nice to hear an Aussie voice.

This is simple yet incredible explanation to anyone wanting to learn . Great effort .

This was super helpful! Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

Using this to learn for a beautiful decking/roof system I am building with my company! Awesome little instructional video, clear and well explained.

All your videos are very easy to understand, thank you!

Missed you for a long while but again another great instructional upload. Thanks Mate

Great video, as always Thanks!

I love your vids. I find them incredibly informative and well illustrated and explained. Keep up the great work!

your videos are wonderful keep doing the good work i love them!

This is very helpful . Thank you ✨

Great video mate!

Bravo buildsum you are the best

Thank you!

One of the best videos on timber roof structure, thanks!

thank you sir

purlins run over the rafter and sit directly under the roof / metal sheeting, ceramic tiles/ ect.

Love it

Thanks

If you show including how the loads would transfer from one member to another member load path including lateral

I’ve never heard of a jack rafter. I am new to roofing and I’m in the process of getting my roofing license. I have the booklet for the class and on the diagram it shows hip jack and hip rafter, doesn’t state anything about jack rafters. At first I was wondering if it was different terminology because we are in different locations but everything else you said was on point. New to the channel and Fs gonna look more into it🤟🏾💯

Brilliant channel. I've grown fond of roofs. It's sad but lucrative to be able to safely cut these timbers away to do a lot conversion. I'm trying to learn. Thanks again.

Love the video, it's straight-to-the-point and really informative Please how can I make animated 3D presentations like this, what software did you use

Request: Great series of videos, would you be interested in doing something on construction of dormers. Its quite difficult to find good materials on the net, especially re: Australian construction. I want to construct a 'wall' dormer with double doors leading to a balcony area.

👏👏👏

What was the terminology for the house for The Unbroken hip roof wear the Gable rafters are broken? Does that makes them creepers since they're breaking into the unbroken hip and into the Gable Ridge?

Great video. Forgot the collar ties?

How long does it take to replace an old rotting roof (iron roof, ridge, the whole component etc)? My house structure/roof type is a broken hip and valley

Dear lord! At 1:28 I nearly lost it with “rafters always run at 90deg to external walls”. I was looking at that vertical plan and wondering how the heck I was not seeing 90deg- also knowing that the pitch varies by architect specs. - then upon seeing plot view it became clear. Phew 😅 time/space warp narrowly averted.

i always thought that purlins are between the actual roofing and the roofing framing system (Rafter or Truss)?

So that broken hip and valley rafter holds each other there?

great video, thanks buildsum. i have a quick question here, do you know the truss abbreviation name is : TGG, that was be marked on the plan, my first thought was truncated girder truss, but it's not, do you have any idea what that may be ? much thanks

Hey mate. Does a strut going dowm to a wall plate make the wall underneath load bearing? And so to remove the wall, you need to add a beam to transfer the load from the strut to the edge walls?

Hi, I'm in California and will be building my own house on my homestead and just wondering what application software are you using on your 3d presentation. I would like to build my home first in the computer so to make sure I can cover all the unforeseen difficulties, I want to make sure I can finish before winter time hits so if I can model the house I want to build I can research ahead of time. Thank you for the wonderful video. Sheep farmer from California

hi Buildsum, still loving your content i've learned heaps !! wondering if you could help me out, iv'e got an old school ready reckoner and it says the 'jack edge cut' is 37.5 degrees on a 40 degree roof, i cant picture this ? surely it would be 45 ?

Pls sam what software do u use for ur videos?

What is that cadd

I wana learn broken hip roof please upload the file

you dont need the purlins tho do you?

Atleast you should mentioned the names of the component
