Do you want the trusses to meet the roof at equal horizontal spacings, or have the same angle always? The former is easier but looks a little funny.

But also, just looking at this… why??? Why the shapey-shapey roof? Why outer-lying truss supports? It’s bad design.

I see two areas on that roof that will collect water instead of shedding it, as it should.

Oh…kay. I was interpreting truss a little differently here. :sweat_smile: But I think you did it right. A space frame is probably what he wanted.
