Planning guide
Plan this task
Prepare a measured roof drawing with segment geometry, product width and overlap before planning each cut.
Plan the work
Before you begin
A hip or valley sheet-cut plan must account for roof segment geometry, exposed sheet width, overlap and the cut direction. A panel-count division cannot determine those cuts.
Steps
- Identify each roof segment and its hip or valley boundary.
- Keep the product sheet width and overlap information with the measured drawing.
- Use the linked area-coverage tools for quantity checks, and arrange a cutting layout for the measured hip or valley.
Use these measurements when discussing the layout or repair quote; this page does not calculate a result.
