Slope Roof Into Sq Ft

The roof pitch is important in determining the appropriate installation method and how much roofing material will be needed.

Slope roof into sq ft.

A roof with a 6 rise for every 12 run has a 6. So 2400 x 1 12 2 688 2 88 sqs added for pitch. Steep roofs measure your house at ground level then add in the roof s overhang for greater accuracy. As an example if your overhang is 12 inches you ll add 2 feet to the overall length and 2 feet to the overall width of the house.

And that s the number you were looking for. And for a roof with a slope of 6 12 that number 1 118 is your roof slope multiplier. Roof is 6 12 pitch and measures at 2 400 square feet. That gives you 5 590 square feet which is the actual area of the surface of the roof.

Take the area of the roof s footprint say it s 5 000 square feet and multiply 5 000 by 1 118. Roof pitch is used to describe the slope or angle of the roof. Multiply the roof length by the gable wall length 40 24 960 multiply this amount by the slope factor 960 1 1180 1073 28 the area of this roof 1073 3 sq.
