Hoop height calculator?

[Sefirothe]

I know I saw a calculator or maybe a infographic on how tall/short a hoop coop could be made depending on how wide you make the base.

I'm drawing blanks trying to search the forums for it tho.

Anyone got it bookmarked?

I don't know about finding it on BYC, but there is one I've found several places on the internet:

Hopefully at least one of those will help. (They all look like the same picture to me, I just don't know which link will actually behave properly when I try to put it in a post.)

That's the one I used.

Yep, that's the one I was looking for. Thank you!!

Wish I'd seen that long ago! Ours are about 5' tall, bearable but not best. The trade-off is between floor space and height, unless you add a taller wood base frame, which will also add a lot of weight.

I'm actually planning out a garden hoop trellis, but the constraints are similar. I actually want a low height because I'm short and will need to be able to reach the cucumbers planned for this to pick them!!

I did a google image search, and put in any terms I could think of. Kept changing them until I got the picture I recognized

A somewhat related question. My wife and I are contemplating building a coop, with a hoop coop over part of the coop.

I need to figure out not the overall height, but how wide the hoop coop would be at about five feet above ground, to accommodate the overhanging eaves of the anticipated coop roof.

There are some interesting websites on the internet to work with catenaries, but my math skills are totally inadequate I'm afraid.

Maybe it's easier to simply butt the hoop coop up against the coop, which may be what we end up doing.

Does anyone know of a calculator to determine cross sections of the hoop coop at various heights above the ground?
