BoDay1 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Hello, I'm adding on to an existing log cabin with a T&G wood ceiling. My roof framing will be as follows. 2x10 rough sawn rafters @ 48" OC (bearing on the wall and a heavy ridge beam) 2x6 T&G fir decking on top of the rafters. 2" thick ridged insulation on top of the 2x6 1/2" OSB on top of the ridged insulation Shingles on the 1/2" OSB -- I want to accurately show that thickness. I have skylights in the addition. Any advice would be appreciated before I spend hours going down the wrong path. Thank you, Bo Quail Valley Raised Roof.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoDay1 Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 Good morning, The problem is that I don't know how to adjust the thickness of my roof sheathing. Or if I can't adjust the thickness of the sheathing do I draw a vaulted ceiling? or is there an easier way? Thanks, Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Home Designer does not have the settings to directly change the roof structure to do what you want. If it's important, you could hire someone (not me) with Chief to create the roof structure. They would not need to draw anything, just set roof defaults.

BoDay1 Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 I'm able to get pretty close to what I want by hanging an additional ceiling in the space. Then I have drawn 4x8 rafters with no problem Now my only struggle is that those rafters won't show up in Perspective Full Overview. They are visible if I drag them outside... but there is some setting that won't allow them to appear "below" my ceiling? I have attached the plan. Can you see what I am doing wrong?
