juncman 0 Posted April 9, 2015 Using 2015 Home Designer Suite, I have trouble adding a roof to a one story addition to the rear and front porch to my Mansard style plan. Each time I add a roof (to either the roof or rear addition) I lose my Mansard roof. Please help Mansard floor plan.plan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

juncman 0 Posted April 9, 2015 On the front/wrap around porch, a simple hip (3 or 4 on 12 to avoid blocking 2nd floor windows) with a 24" soffet shoudl be fine. On the rear, a hip (I think 1/2 hip to flat edge, not point) is best as the room is 20" and 3 on 12 would cover the rear windows. Thanks G Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
