Roof Pitch to Degrees • Degrees to Roof Pitch • Reference Charts. Ways to Express Roof Slope: Pitch, Degrees, and Percentage. This article explains the various uses and aspects of roof pitch. Includes a roof pitch chart that shows the relative steepness of common roof pitches.
Calculator: Roof Pitch to Degrees Conversion. This calculator converts any roof pitch in standard format (including roof pitches with decimal fractions) to degrees to two decimal places.
Our chart shows the code-required minimum roof pitch for every roofing material. Minimum roof slope for asphalt shingles, metal panels, EPDM, etc.
A very thorough roof pitch factor chart, along with an explanation of the roof pitch factor and the formula so you can calculate slope factors yourself.
We explain roof pitch multipliers and include a large roof pitch multiplier chart. Includes the formula so you can calculate slope multipliers yourself.
Standard roof pitch tells you how many inches the roof rises for every foot it runs horizontally. You don’t have to be using inches for this to work. A roof that rises 6 inches per foot of run has the same slope as a roof that rises 6 centimeters per 12 centimeters of run.
You enter the width, length, and slope of each section, and the calculator computes the footprint area of the roof section, the roof pitch multiplier that applies for the given slope, and the actual surface area of the roof section. The roof’s surface area is calculated in both square feet and square meters.
This table gives the hip and valley factor (or multiplier) for a full range of roof pitches, as well as the equation for calculating the factor.
Want to calculate the surface area of a roof? Learn how to use the roof pitch multiplier and the roof's footprint to accurately figure out total roof area.
Introduction. The rafter square and framing square save time on roof construction. All necessary cuts for a particular rafter can be laid out with these two squares. A basic knowledge of rafters helps determine what scale and what number on the tool to use.
