This is a very good book on timber framing roofs with various advanced geometry building methods. I have a few books by Steve Chappell they are just loaded with very good information with formulas for calculating spans and other engineering details that are hard to find in other books on timber frmaing especially if you DIY. If you were to only have a few books I would start with Steve Chappell books on timberframing. A must have for new framers is ( A timber framers workshop )
