A roof rises 2.4 feet vertically and 12.3 feet horizontally What is the grade of the roof?
A 2/12 pitch x 12.3 ft would be 24.6 inches of rise. A 3/12 would be 36.9 inches of rise. 2.33 feet = 27 inches. So you are between a 2 and 3 pitch.
A roof rises 4.5 feet over a horizontal distance of 14.42 feet What is the slope of the roof?
The pitch would be 3.74 4.5 x 12 = 54" rise 54 / 14.42 = 3.74
What is the slope of a ramp that has a rise of 1 inch over a run of 10ft?
Slope is equal to rise over run. There are 12 inches in a foot, so 10 feet is actually 120 inches. Therefore, the slope is equal to 1/120.
What is square feet of 14x16 room what is square footage for 14x16 with 1 foot overhang on 8 pitch roof?
14 feet times 16 feet are 224 square feet. Assuming you are using the American method of determining pitch, ie., 8 inch rise per 1 foot run, you need 346.1326 square feet of roofing. It must be just a coincidence, but I got the same result with the ridgeline on the 16 foot length or the 14 foot width.
What is the length of slope with 3 12 pitch and a run of 2 ft?
3/12 means rise of 3 inches for 12 inches or 1 foot. 2 feet would give you a rise of 6inches. The slope is 6^2+24^2=s^2 36+576=612 s=approximately 24.7386337537
