The methodology along with the correct answer for every illustrated roof situation is fully detailed. You MUST have a copy of ""A Roof Cutter's Secrets"" (2002 or later) and a Construction Master Pro calculator to follow along. 108 pgs. w/250 questions and 61 illustrations."

"Will Holladay learned production roof cutting in the Los Angeles housing tracts during the mid 1970s. When roof trusses gained prominence in the late 1970s he moved north into the custom home market along the central California coast. There he specialized in framing large custom homes with ""complicated roofs"". Over the years, Will has done jobs up/down the West Coast and in New England. In 1988 he wrote the now classic roof framing book entitled ""A Roof Cutter's Secrets to framing the custom home"". This book was revised and republished in 2002 by Hanley Wood. Will continues to keep his hand in roof framing by working as a free lance consultant (www.theroofcutter.com)."
