European Championship for Carpenters task model 2014.

This current European Championship for Carpenters task model is extremely complex. I wonder if the apprentice carpenters had the drawings before the competition? Or how many of them actually completed the task model? 

Here's a couple of drawings of the European Championship for Carpenters task model 2014. I'm still not done, but you can get an general idea of how much geometric roof framing knowledge each of the apprentice carpenters must know to complete the task model.

3D drawing of the European Championship for Carpenters task model. I'll use this drawing to verify the geometry I develop is correct.

Basic ground plan of the roof.

Technique to develop the eave line that is level in plan view.

3D drawing of the hip rafters and raking/sloping plate lines.

3D drawing with plumb lines to establish the location of the jack rafters and purlin rafters on the roof surface.

Drawing of the base that holds up the roof.

Front sloped legs of the base.

Drawing with the legs and plates of the base.

Trying to establish the rotation of the hip rafter rotated into the roof surface.

Developing the profile rafter slope angle on the sides of the task model.

Raccord drawing of the roof surface.

Raccord drawing of the roof surface with the rafters on the roof surface.

Trying to develop the correct location of the rafters on the roof surface.

Drawing showing the technique I used to establish the miter line on the roof surface using the hip rafter backing triangle and the depth of the profile rafter. 

Drawing with the hip rafter foot print developed from the hip rafter material block rotated to the hip rafter backing angle.

Drawing showing the development of the Devers De Pas line for the DP side of the hip rafter rotated into the roof surface. Sure am glad I studied the Treteaux angles.

Transferring the lines to the sides of the timbers on the rof surface.

Drawing showing the miter and claw lines on the roof surface. I got the miter and claw lines dimensions from my RafterTools app for iPhone or Android.
