Easy Rafters is a stand-alone computer aided design program that takes the guesswork out of calculating and cutting roof rafters. Simply select a rafter type, enter the required dimensions, and instantly generate fully dimensioned drawings that can be viewed on-screen, printed to any Windows printer, or exported to most CAD systems as a DXF file. With Metric capability, too!
If you're a building professional, Easy Rafters will save you time & money by performing complex calculations quickly and accurately, by helping you accurately estimate materials and reduce waste, and by allowing you to use less experienced help when cutting rafters.
Easy Rafter's DXF export capability allows architects and engineers to provide added value for their customers by including detailed rafter drawings and specifications with their plans.
Features
The configurable slope list makes it easy to select from a list of preset roof slopes. Slopes can also be entered directly in the rise and run fields.
The configurable lumber list makes it easy to select from a list of preset lumber sizes. Custom sizes can be entered directly in the thickness and depth fields.
I used Easy Rafter to design and layout this gambrel rafter system for the workshop that I am constructing. The software is great, but this is the last set of rafters I hope to ever build!!! Michael R., South Carolina
