Advice on the best practice.
Window 7'-8" header height (required) in a 9' wall. Want 1' clearance above window pediment. Frieze 1x8. Roof is 12/12, 2x8 rafter, 12" overhang (required). Heel height 8.1065", Seat cut 2.5". Added a 1"-0" "knee" wall as an additional floor. Roof raised on "knee wall". Achieved desired clearance. This is how we have stick framed this in the past, no truss.
I this best practice or is there another simpler way to achieve same results?
Thanks
