Trey86 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I am trying to draw an existing house before a big renovation. I cannot get figure out the proper way to do the shed roof for the back of the house and covered patio. It is a simply shed roof over the master bed and bath that extends over the back porch. I will have the same issue with the front porch but Im not there yet. Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Without knowing which software title and version you are using, no one can help you with a positive answer. Fill out your posting "signature" so others know what you are using. Then state what you have tried that "did not work" so other helpers can then help as they wish to.

Trey86 Posted October 11, 2021 Author Share Posted October 11, 2021 I am using Home Designer Pro 2021. I tried doing a shed roof. I made the side walls full gable walls, the back wall a high shed wall, and the front wall a knee wall. I adjusted the pitch and was able to get the roof line to come close to the existing gable roof. I cannot get it to fill in to the siding/wall section that should be running on top of the gable roof like in the photos I posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 You did that correctly as far as I can see, in terms of the shed roofs shown, of course they do not fully match the photos because the open, covered porch has not yet been added as well as the front porch but you are headed in the right direction, just more yet to learn.

Trey86 Posted October 11, 2021 Author Share Posted October 11, 2021 Ho do I get the siding and wall to continue up the roofline? Right now there is a big gap. If you rotate the camera angle you can see straight through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean_house Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Hello, Could you please advise how to do this roof design in Chief Architect X15. I'm doing a house addition with a shed roof to the slope of a gable roof that looks very similar to the design above. Thank you, Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
