Description

Rafter Tools+ for iPhone-iPad is a rafter calculator for complex roof framing angles that other roof framing calculators don't offer. Calculating common rafters with a construction calculator is fairly easy, but to be a master carpenter you need more roof framing angle information then the construction calculators offers. With the Rafter Tools-Plus app, you'll be able to calculate all of the complex angles for roof framing.

The calculator displays the hip rafter plumb line shift dimensions to precisely layout hip rafters for equal pitched or irregular hip roofs with any eave angle (0° - 180°). Calculate and layout the witches cut precisely with Rafter Tools-Plus (Square Tail Fascia) using the hip rafter plumb line shift dimensions.

Display the hip rafter roof framing angles with easy to use Framing Square Usage. Calculates the lengths of common rafters, jack rafters, and hip rafters. With ridge and hip rafter width deductions. Use it to calculate Pentagonal, Hexagonal or Octagonal Roofs.

Timber Framing Angles calculated from Bartok, Hawkindale, Martindale and McKibben-Gray Hip-Valley Roof Ratios Angle Formulas. Timber Framing Angles definition are just a click away in the app.

Standard Rake Walls and Hip Rake Walls rotated into the roof surface plane.
Devers-Canted Hip Rafters, Purlin Rafters

Bad app

Carpenter for 15 years and now I’m in IT, horrible app and I want my money back.

Not for everyone.

It’s really hard to understand that anyone would look to this app for basic roof design calculations. I’ve been using “Construction Master” for almost 20yrs and still do every day, but this app goes way beyond that. Obviously the developers assumed that their consumers would already have a good understanding of complex roof design. This app met all of my expectations. It may not be the most polished interface but the shear capabilities of the app are outstanding. If your more of a framing square than a speed square type of carpenter then you’ll understand.

Not good for framing in my opinion

I was looking for an app that would give run length for roof framing based on rise and run. This failed to meet my expectations
