European Task Model #3

This is a  Swiss designed task model and it's a tough one. Draw out the geometry and build it in 7 hours. Yea, right. The hip rafter on the left side of the task model has a claw on it. I'm just guessing this was the correct development for the hip rafter claw angle. The rotated rafter on the left side of the task model meets the hip rafter at a skewed angle and has a hidden center line that must be transferred to the timber correctly. The cut on the end of this rotated timer is something like the witches cut. Make two different cuts across the timber to produce the correct bevel angles at the foot of the rafter.





Ground Plan. Grundriss


Develop the Profiles for the hip rafters and the dihedral angles as well.

Develop the Jack Rafter Claw Lines.

Develop the internal edge of the hip rafter  and seat line on the folding roof surface.





Mark perpendicular lines on the timber placed over the folding roof surface. Then mark the miter angles, back bevel angles and claw lines.


Both rafters on the right side of the task model marked and developed for the folding roof surface.
