The brace length is the hypotenuse of the leg.
The brace is drawn going into an 8" wide post and a 10" deep tie. (12" in that drawing) The geometry is easy to calculate length along the reference face, then step off the housing depth with the square. A client can mill rule this or square rule it.
I note this information if the client wants me to produce stick drawings.
What do you do?
