Rafter spread?

[Joshua L. Frederick]

What would cause rafters to spread this way??

Thanks in advance.

Geometicly speaking, the walls would have to get closer.

I think they were cut that way.

I agree...

They were cut that way when built. Slopy job not using at least a 1" ridge board. I can just see them fighting now trying to keep each pair of rafters from swaying.

Is that exclusive to Californians ?

[Keith Runquist, CMI]

Yep, looks original. Poor carpentry.

I think geometry applies most places, except possibly the deep south

Geometrically is the correct spelling.
