A feature of a residential roof plan is the basic outline of the roof. You could base your roof plan off of your floor plan, but due to the over-hang of the roof, that could become very time-consuming so I just used a ruler and measured out each side because there wasn’t very much to draw. After I drew the basis, I just offset by a foot all the way around to the inside to show where my house was, below the roof. These inside lines were represented by hidden lines. This roof plan required a lot of notes. The notes were needed to show the slopes of the roof and where the valleys and ridges were. I would say that the hardest part about this unit was picking the layer for the roof. I didn’t have anything to tell me what it was so I just asked Mr. Grummer. Even though I say that was the hardest part, it was still pretty easy
