Upper rafter extension?

BS! Bollinger, I can copy out of books too. It doesn’t mean diddly Squat! You’re new to the boards. I don’t think you know what you’re talking about!

I trust Dennis! He’s an ex-locomotive engineer.

It hasn’t failed, but doesn’t mean it can’t. I’ve seen that done before on ridge but not a rafter. Obviously too late now but would’ve been structurally stronger if the V was cut into the extension and kept longer section in tact. Weak point in that joint is deep in the V.
