Roof...
Does anyone know if theres a selection on the roof dbx to fill in the space between the wall and the roof near the exposed rafters? I forgot the technical name to the piece of wood that covers this space. Chief usually has roof selections for everything, so Im hoping this isnt one of those rare applications where you have to manually draw it!
Thanks in advance!Chad Cardin

chad, i think its called a freeze board. should be a tab in the dbx. for the roof plane.
I have seen this before and i think if you draw attic walls above that will close up the space. don't forget to rebuild floors and ceilings after.

Sometimes Chief won't put a rafter block in that space but you can add one. Also check and see if you have the blocking size correct in the framing dbx.
