Analyze Roof and Plan Cricket Structure

What happens here

The video introduces a new roof section, specifically a vaulted ceiling addition, that connects to an existing roof, forming a complex intersection. The primary goal is to manage afternoon sun exposure by creating shade, which involves building a cricket (also known as a saddle) in the valley for proper water diversion. The existing sheathing on the ridge beam is intentionally run past the rafter by approximately two inches to create a slight apex, preventing flat spots where water could pool.
