Its on the backside of my roof. Directly in front of it was a fire intentionally set by previous home owners now ex wife. I'd be willing to be has something to do with the fire or fire being put out.Well, I'm not an expert, but I'd do 2 things.
Sister BOTH sides. And don't cheap out and use a short beam.
Next, look at the other rafters VERY closely.
Why did it break?
Did you have something fall on the roof?
Is it rotted?
Termites?
I question if any of them realize they moved out.That women knows her ex moved out, right?
Lol not this house... it is haunted by a crazy gsd but thats a different story.Listen to actaeon. If you’re doing one side go ahead and do both.
Are you sure the house is not haunted by ex wives? Better sleep with one eye open.
I was going to use my 6 foot level, sting would be easier to haul across the attic.Run a string, as far both ways from the affected rafter to make sure it hasn't "sow bellied" inward. If it has, brace it back upwards into it's proper position before bracing both sides.
Good luck Sir.
