Is there a formula for maximum roof overhang before it needs support?
I’m trying to find some information. Is this commonly refereed to as a “rake overhang”?

No code on that. Just report if it’s sagging or not.
that is a rake eave and it looks supported.
There is no max. b4 it needs support. Depends on the particular construction.
Wouldnt it be considered a cantilever joist? In which case it can not be greater than 1/3 the length of the entire joist.
No. It’s a brace, not a joist.
architecturally known as “eave brackets” or “eaves brackets”
Thanks for the input!
What I would consider in my observations or the roof is shingle overhang.
The shingles must stand proud of the decking by 5/8 of an inch.
Drip-edge flashing and underlay …etc.
I see no 5/8 over hang in the asphalt shingles.
Live loading or Horizontal forces play a roll in weather entering the perimeter of the roof.
