Typically in these areas, a girder truss is installed 8' from the exterior stud spanning the short direction. Short monopitch trusses are then installed framing the space within the 8' dimension to within 8' of the exerior wall that the girder truss is bearing on. Variable depth monopitch trusses are then installed in the four corners. This arrangement should work with any of the above roof shapes.
