- Want to calculate your own rake wall? Start here!
Get a piece of paper and right this down..
Base Stud (stud you're starting off of, typically second stud in): 100" to short point of a 40* bevel (10/12 pitch)
Roof pitch: 10/12
Get your calculator and punch this in..
16 [INCH] [RUN] - 10 [INCH] [PITCH] - [RISE] - ___________...?
You should have gotten 13-5/16" from doing the above equation.
Now do this..
100 [INCH] (base stud height) + 13 [INCH] 5/16 = 113-5/16 to short point of a 40* bevel.
Hit "=" as many times as you need and it'll add that 13-5/16" over and over, giving you all of your stud numbers to short point..

I've heard a lot of people say they don't know how to use a construction calculator, so why should they own one? Tell me this.. Did you learn how to walk before you had legs? No...
Here's a link to a construction calculator, one that we use daily.. Calculated Industries is the only calculator we use: amzn.to/3guuMyb
Follow the calculation for top plate lengths as I do it, or for stud calculating in the description below. It's a simple method!
Happy Monday, hope you're all staying busy and working hard.
I have one on my phone. But watched larry do it and those charts are on the framing square
added to cart. ;)
@mattbangswood So, interested to know if use/tried the CI Const Calc App on iPhone (if have Apple), or on Android? AND then what ya think about them (imo, the iOS app seems better than Android version); BUT, also have a handheld calc as well. There’s just something about actually pushing a button instead of tapping a screen😉
Suppose a similar thing about digital or film photography etc….there’s just nothing like shooting on film, getting “the shot” and how it looks, imo. (Even though digital is awesome, convenient)
I find my pitch and top plate different but how he showed it might be better.
Superb video, learned a great deal!
Thank you
I'm a 23 yr old almost 1 yr building customes out in Colorado and I love watching your videos for tips and tricks, now I can show my boss and get that raise👍
Out of colorado to 21 hopefully start my company next year full time framing since jr year of high school took lead on my first house after Matt definitely taught me some new amazing things off of his videos
I normally build custom homes in my area.... but every now and then I'll take on these type of jobs. Usually quick easy money.
As a solo shed builder this little series is very cool to watch. Been a fan for a long time of your videos. Cant wait to see it finished out. Best thing about sheds is you can prefab almost the entire thing if you have the right trailer.
DIYer here. Building a Potting Shed for the wife. Never worked a building project from scratch. Watched this video a few times and got comfortable with the calculator and process. Today… took on my first Rake Wall and was amazed how perfect everything went. Thanks for the lessons, definitely took the edge off screwing it up. Wife is impressed! Thanks for doing these videos!
Construction Master has a phenomenal app that is less than the calculator and when do you not have a phone on you now days? Love watching your stuff man, I'm 37 and have been doing construction off and on since i was 14 and wish i had the knowledge and know how that you do. Always fun to watch, and youre content is top notch. not sure how you find the time my dude. Keep it up!
Best Rake wall video explanation on the web,by far, Cheers to you for sharing this info.
killer video! love this format! hopefully you do more like this! thanks
Great job Matt. Just feel sorry for you guys not using the metric system.
Ugggh man best thing i ever did was quit smoking! Def miss it some days ahaha
You’re a genius Matt!
Thanks man, doing great work
Awesome video.
those with scientific calculators Tangent(roof angle) x (stud distance). This case tangent (39.81) x 16 = 13.33. take the .33 x 16 to find out how many 16ths it is
Nice, I was looking for this
You want to be careful Matt them ants could carry away that block of timber and your Calculator😂👍
Excelente trabajo 👌
I swear Fox could be in a Motely Crue cover band!!
Wish I could join the crew you guys are amazing keep up the videos
This is a good video.
Finally ditched the ryobi jigsaw. Been meaning to pick up that makita
I do the same with sprayed foam houses i build the attic walls first then the roof goes over it,saves u from bending over on tight spaces or in some cases from building scaffolds when walls are too high
Haha “a little dinosaur “. Classic!
I’d love to see a video of fox’s and your tool belt setups with the Denali. 2.0
Thanks for the video! Best explanation on rake walls.
Question is; how are you tying the corners together since the top plates cannot overlap?
Where I'm originally from, this would be a house not a shed.
@MattBangsWood great work and great channel. Im currently planning to build a shed in my property and had a questions. I see you're using the a Ramset gun to attach the bottom plate to the concrete. I was wondering if there is a difference between the Ramset nails vs J bolts added during the concrete pour?
The hammer in the back pouch. Only real carps will understand😂
I would always rather do the math!
Lasers are great when their working right, but your math won’t lie!
Metric calculations are so much easier!! Here in Scotland we just do all wall plates at the same height then build to underside of rafter after.
Can’t do that here unfortunately.
That we sure do
@@MattBangsWood personally just think it’s easier! But those imperial measurements look so confusing as fuck lol
I get so disappointed when metric workers diss imperial without actually learning it. I started off with imperial but now use metric. It's possible to make mistakes in both but once you learn them I wouldn't say one is easier than the other
Hey Matt. Awesome video as always. Quick question, did you anchor the base plate to the concrete with anything other than the ramset nails? Thanks. Matt J.
Love this channel. Where/what I need to learn to become a professional framer?
Definitely prefer the mathematical layout over pulling measurements. If the lumber has inconsistencies those are essentially locked in place by pulling the measurements.
How many houses did you frame or work on a framing crew until you were competent to do this project. Great video btw 👍
I prefer to do a rake wall the second way you did it. Great explanation tho.
Now when you’re laying out your 16 on center from what you have shown . Now do you do the same to the other side and meet in the middle so everything is consistent from both ends because I get how you’re doing the measurement from one side but let’s say the rake wall is 16 feet long do I do a split measurement starting from each end and meet in the middle just wondering because I’m brushing up on how to build rake walls pluse you explain everything well
I have a question. When you build that rake wall, do you have to block at 8 foot where the top of the zip system is to fasten it inbetween the studs
Can you build the same style rake/gable wall if you have a structural ridge beam? Or with a structural ridge you'd build it differently? Thanks!
Are you coming back to this series? :)
What type of Hilti fasteners did you use for the sill plate to concrete connection?
That is one stout little she shed.
With the price of lumber these days that's a $100k shed......lol
my 12x10 shed at Least $ 5000 in Materials Alone
Concrete Base 12x18 - 1 1/2 foot thick with LOTS of Green Home Depot Rebar about $2000
Labout Free - ME
Question: when you sit your ridge on your rake wall, how can can you assure that the end s of your rafters won’t stick above the ridge? Or vice versa, stop short of the top of the ridge.
The only benefit I see from the second method over the first would be if your slab isn't perfect.
Big gamble nothing works out that perfect if you want perfect and not ok this will do but you r correct
I like numbers so I would use the calculator.
Howd you calculate the notch on your rafters
It may be a shed but it looks like a major construction build.
I’ve said it a time or two in the comments here, but I like to treat all projects the same. No slacking for any reason.
Learn both new school is faster but old school works when the calculator breaks. My grandfather taught me to check level with a plastic tube full of water not because he didn't own a modern level but because you can't build a modern one at home on purpose.
🤘
Don’t recall saying or seeing anything….. But, is there gonna be electric run inside this shed, & if so, what’s the plan to run it? Sub panel from house, solar, battery, etc… Curious, as the drawing customer had that you guys are going off of, pretty cool; especially when able to “make it your own”.
Thx Matt✌🏻
I'm happy to be working in metric....
I’m always pissed when I see you guys in jackets in mid June. Wtf. Sincerely, 90 degrees in Michigan
107 here on Wednesday, the sweaters came off really fast! Summer crept in slow, but knocked us all on our butts.
118 in Arizona 😂
Question: i have a rake wall that im building and its on a 15 degree kick out form the house, were do i start my wall length messurement. Short to long or long to long? Thanks for your help.
Interesting. I actually frame the gable end wall like the other walls, find the center and put a stud to hold my ridge beam then calculate the rafters off that. I find this is easier if you have doors/windows on this side.
Can’t do that in CA, unfortunately.
@@MattBangsWood Of course. Do you know why that's not allowed?
Creates a hinge point, engineers would have an absolute fit.
Noob here. Can you expand on what you mean by ‘hinge point’ please
Would you use a rake wall on a 18' run wall with a door? The shed is 22'x18' with single door on the gable end.
Me personally, I wouldn’t ever frame flat top if it was raked.. Calculating studs isn’t hard, but some people don’t like the time it takes.
Up to you!
Did you ever think you would be giving math lesson while seating math in high school?
I was always really good with numbers, but no! Absolutely not, my teachers probably wouldn’t suspect I’d be teaching math either.. 😂
U should be a teacher. The way u explained that made so much sense. Thanks for other great video.
This is another world for me. In sweden we messure in cm! Not inch 😅
THATS RAZZLEDAZZLLEEE
was that cat takin a toke
There is a app that as this calculator on it.. but good lesson.
The majority of yr homes is built out of lumber and built fast too but they can be like the three little piggy when a storm comes I prefer blocks instead
Do you cut the studs on the same pitch as the roof?
Where do you buy the 6X6's for your headers at?
4 guy crew for a shed - That's California
Just curious how much is that little shed gonna cost total?
But depending on the designer of the home surly they can put all of this down on the blue print??
While I love math an it’s perfect we don’t live in a perfect world so I use the practical method an measure if the foundation is not straight an level your studs could be short or long you can use either method to check yourself so you look good and there will be a next job if you know what I mean
Unable to locate remaining episodes Matt?
Try Diamondback hammer holster. You will never go back
3:56 to the left of the wall, there is literally a face
How do you use different on center spacing for the rake function on the construction master? I alway try to change it but it always uses preprogrammed 16" O.C.
Frame on 12" center and the math would get real easy. Wood price would bankrupt you, but that is a different problem.
The corners we refer to them as Hollywood's
Ballon framing
comedy central presents, let's build a shed with Nick Swardson.
Featuring the one and only, Jaydizzle Foshizzle Manizzle! *audience claps*
@@MattBangsWood I apologize if you took that the wrong way dude, you just sound very similar to him I had to point it out lol
Did u guys finish that last house
Still going. Fancy trades just finished up. I’m heading back there soon.
What tool is fox using at 3:34?
Its a powder actuated fastener, the Hilti gun that is shown at 5:17-5:23. Shots a hardened steel pin to fasten a wood plate to concrete.
What happened with the duplex build?
Currently still being built. All mechanical, plumbing, electrical, etc is just finished up.
@@MattBangsWood no videos..?
He’s a framer why would he have a video of all that other stuff
Where’s the rest brooooooo
you don't use sill seal in ca.
Key to a she, figure out what size you want and then triple or quadruple it
Could you draw it next time lol. I’m a little slower then most
I have the construction calculator don’t it much but it is useful. If you don’t use it you forget and have to relearn.
use the calculator .do it a few times it will be much faster
Why bother with the double top plate on the raked wall of it’s not load bearing? Just put a stud directly under the ridge in the apex of the wall
California, this is how we have to build. I keep same standards for all projects.
4:09 well this wall is overly built look at those studs
My boss gets mad because l use maths mainly trigonometry to work everything out but because he doesn’t understand it he’s taken a dislike to me.
Why wouldn't u just rafter it in put your braces on the inside of the building and not to a tree and then you wouldn't have to worry about it if you have your sill plates fastened and stud it up to your rafter you will never get away with this on a $3 million home nonetheless even a garage in my neck of the woods
TitenHD before drywall. Where's your neck of the woods? I build on the beaches in California.
Question: when you sit your ridge on your rake wall, how can can you assure that the end s of your rafters won’t stick above the ridge? Or vice versa, stop short of the top of the ridge.
