How does that work? A 14 spoke wheel has 7 spokes on each side, so the only pattern is radial.
What you need to do is calculate the lengths for a conventional 28 spoke wheel, then adjust at least one side for the incorrect hub drilling.
I'm not using one side radial, because I would always worry that the hub could twist out of alignment, leaving the wheel detensioned.
