Not a good situation. Not only do you have potential water problems but basically, the whole back side of your main roof has to be picked up by beams or girders. Can you step the center ridge of your main roof back so the back eave lines up with the wall between the stairs & great room. That would improve your structure and roof conditions.

Sorry - I don't understand the question. You have a main roof with staggered ridge running top to bottom with on the right side a standard eave. At the bottom end of this main roof you have the truncated hip that you originally showed. ( This gives you a funky roof edge over what I assume is the entry area at the lower left corner. - This might be better handled if you turned the main ridge to be perpindicular to this angled wall but your the designer.) On the right side, you have two gables. ( Which are not shown as hipped on my sketch.)

What we've done in the field sometimes is a large cricket. Not the greatest of solutions, but it works.

These posts are over 7 years old, you should have created a new thread for any questions. However to answer your question you would just put a slope on all 4 sides of your building, same slope all the way around if your building is square.
