By the way the unit run for the shallower pitch roof will always be less than 17 inches while the unit run for the steeper pitch will always be greater than 17 inches.

Start from the very bottom and work your way up with putting the membrane to the roof at least 24 away from the wall and at least 8 up the wall. The intersecting roofs to the ridge of the major roof and a short valley rafter will run from the opposite inside corner of the intersecting roofs to a point on the long valley rafter that it inline with the ridge of the minor roof. In the actual dead valley fold it in but do not make any cuts.

It is essential to only use whole not cut shingles during this step.
