Just that a 4x8 solid piece will be stronger than two triangles.

It's only a really small section so Id think the flat roof is fine. What is
the reason for having the pics coplaner? Easier to assemble?

It occurred to me that the pairs of triangles that are almost coplanar
could be made coplanar, and thus made into solid 4x8 panels, if I'm willing
to split the top irregular piece into two pieces. This would seem to be a
bit stronger:

Cool, thanks, guys!
So, nobody's worried about stability?
I'm going to start modding my H12 as soon as I settle on attachment
strategy (velcro, etc.). I think maybe I can assemble the entire thing
myself with velcro, and a short stepladder. The top piece is challenging,
but could maybe be
Great design Bob. The door is the killer feature for all lived in
structures. I haven't built a hex yet. When I do, this is the design I'm
going to use. Cheers.

OH I totally wasn't understanding that until I saw the CAD model - I didn't
see how the doorway worked.
That's great! That would be incredibly useful because doors are hard, and
being able to prefab a 4x8 door unit and just drop it into the design would
be great.
Nice work!

Thanks. However, maybe it's a pipe dream, but I want to be able to set it
up and break it down solo.
I solved for the dimensional parameters of this "5-1/2 yurt" in Mathematica
(the back-wall angle, 112.4°, determines the rest of the geometry), and
modeled it in Rhino, to figure out area,
Velcro has been good to us. ~10 mins setup time. You need one tall person
inside for teardown and two people outside.

I just got back from Burning Man 2017, using an H12 I bought from Reno
Hexayurt. I was pretty happy with it (especially when attached to my large
swamp cooler), but a campmate (also bought Reno H12) and I are wondering
how best to (1) increase the door height, and (2) speed up set up / break
