Determine the length of bottom of gutter

The gutter length should be 130mm longer than the eave length when the gutter has a 90° corner; the gutter length should be 54mm longer than the eave length when the gutter has a 135° corner. Each joining part length is 50mm if the gutter is piecewise connection.

Gutter Connection
