Could someone tell mw if there is any change needed to the normal procedure to design the roof diaphragm to a cottage style roof. I'm thinking not but not certain. The building would ne 62 x 110.
Thanks kindly
Just put framing, sheathing, and nailing to match that of the roof diaphragm on the vertical wall of the hip with appropriate blocking and nailing top and bottom and you should be good. The endwall of the hip becomes a shear wall, of sorts.
