I hope this is the right group for this question, if
not can someone please suggest where else I can ask.
I need to make some curved rafters for a verandah
roof.
The common rafters will be 1500mm when measured in a
straight line from the end points with a curve of
100mm, that is, the mid point of the curve will be
100mm from a straight line drawn from end to end, and
the curve will be part of a circle.
I need to know the curve for the rafters at each
corner of the verandah which are at 45deg.
The length is obviously 1500mm x sqrt2, but is the
curve 100mm x sqrt2?
I hope I've made it clear, and thanks in advance for
any help.
Neil.
