Completing the roof
- [Instructor] Chapter 04-07, we are completing the roof by putting in these valley rafters, one side there and one side here. After giving it some thought, I think it's probably easier rather than trying to fish around and pick accurately with the ends of the rafters. Very difficult to snap to those. We can use this line here, okay. We can use the actual value of the roof and then knowing the thickness of the roof which is 94 millimeters. We can just offset that value by, we'll make it 100 to make the maths a bit easier. If you want to be far more accurate than me, then offset it by the 94 mil. And then we just need to trim up around it and we're good to go. So I'll put the structure tab and then choose the beam tool. This one 75 by 280, that's what we're using. Level two is going to be our reference plane. And this thing is very important. This time, 3D snapping, turn that one on. So we're going to come down to…
