Shift Purlins and Rafters
Select the purlin or rafter to shift.
In the pop-up box, select “Modify Beam Specifications”.
In “Shift Beam” enter the distance to move the rafter or purlin.
A negative number will move a purlin toward the front fascia and a rafter to the left.
To move a purlin toward the rear fascia, or a rafter to the right, enter a positive number.
Shift Front and Back Fascia Beams
This can be achieved by adding Overhangs.
Method 1
In the Shapes and Dimensions tab select Overhangs and put a value in either the Front or the Back box.
The software will give you the allowable overhang based on roof sheet type.
The left and right overhangs only function with insulated panels
Method 2
Left click on the front or back fascia beam.
In the pop-up that appears, put the overhang value in the corresponding box.
The value of the overhang is added to the overall dimension, not included in the original frame width dimension originally entered.
