Build - 📐 Demystifying H.A.P. in Roof Framing! Ever wondered how different roof pitches affect your rafter cuts? This excellent visual guide from Build & Flow Academy breaks it down perfectly. What is H.A.P.? It stands for Height Above Plate. As the graphic explains, it's the vertical distance from the top of the wall plate (T.O.W.) to the top edge of the rafter at the bird's mouth. Notice how the H.A.P. measurement shifts as the pitch changes from a steep 12/12 down to a 5/12 pitch! Getting this right is crucial for a solid roof and a clean, straight fascia line. Save this post for your next framing project! 📌🛠️ #RoofFraming #CarpentrySkills #BuildAndFlowAcademy #ConstructionEducation #FramingTips | Facebook
