Calculate Irregular Hip Rafter Angles

Here's a couple of screen shots of the Rafter Tools for Anfroid App showing the Calculate Irregular Hip Rafters function. Hopefully, it's Erik proof.

Input variables

  1. Roof Eave Angle
  2. Major Pitch Angle
  3. Minor Pitch Angle
  4. Input Length
  5. Overhang Run
  6. Jack Rafter Spacing
  7. Hip Rafter Width
  8. Hip Rafter Depth
  9. Jack Rafter Width -- Common Rafter Width
  10. Major Rafter Depth
  11. Seat Cut Level Cut Length
  12. Ridge Width
For Input Length use any part of the hip rafter geometry as input to find the rest of the angles.
  • Common Rafter Run
  • Common Rafter Span
  • Common Rafter Rise
  • Common Rafter Length
  • Hip Rafter Run
  • Hip Rafter Length
  • Eave Wall Length -- Minor Run
