Isnt the gap on the overhang for the sheathing?

What if I want to make a 3’ overhang. The Jack rafters will be nailed to the hip rafter but it won’t be supported by the framing plate. Won’t that make the roof weak?

Can you not just use the step off method using 16.97 instead to avoid the gap ? If you reduce the seat cut on the hip by half the thickness does this give you the hip drop cut ? thanks for the great tips mate !

What if it’s 8’4” span? How do you mark the 4’2” on the square when stepping off?

[Jay-tkib]

If you use the first method shown, (my favorite) you will have to drop the hip rafter.

Forgive me for asking a silly question. I was looking through your videos and could not find anything on a tandem garage. Have you ever made a video on one of those?
