Make a full-size drawing that is that is the side view of the guitar to figure this out. It will be a first approximation, since when the guitar is strung up the strings will push down on the bridge and soundboard and twist the bridge forward and the neck may bend a little. So it is not completely predictable; it will depend on the flexibility of the soundboard and the neck.
The drawing will include the nut, the fingerboard, the soundboard, the bridge and the strings. Don't forget to include the fret heights. Then leave room so that if the neck flexes a little and the soundboard gets depressed a little, the top of the saddle will still be able to be above the wood part of the bridge.
Make a guitar according to this approximation, then when you get the resultant guitar make adjustments to the solera for the next guitar if necessary.
