Gable Bracket Fitting Diagram

This tool visually calculates the center rise of your gable based on the overall span and selected roof pitch, demonstrating exactly how a Timber Build gable bracket will fit at the gable's peak.

Gable Bracket Fitting Diagram – How It Works

The Gable Bracket Fitting Diagram helps accurately determine the ideal size and fit for architectural brackets on your roof's gable. It visually represents the relationship between roof pitch, gable width, and bracket dimensions to simplify bracket selection and installation.

By entering your specific roof pitch (e.g., 8:12) and the width of your gable, the diagram calculates and displays precise bracket measurements. This ensures your brackets will fit perfectly, maintaining both structural integrity and visual harmony.

• Input your Gable Span (width) to calculate the optimal bracket span and height.
• Enter your roof pitch (e.g., 10:12) to see how bracket dimensions adjust to your roof angle.
• The diagram dynamically updates to illustrate how the bracket fits within your gable structure.
• Experiment with different bracket spans to achieve your desired appearance.

Trying various bracket spans helps you avoid selecting brackets that are either too small or too large for your gable. This simple tool prevents undesirable sizing issues and simplifies planning for builders, architects, and homeowners, ensuring accurate bracket selection and effective installation for visually appealing and structurally sound gable enhancements.
