Is the square footage of your roof the same as the square footage of your home?
Unless you have a flat roof, no; the surface area of the roof will be larger than the ground area of the building.
How do you calculate the square footage of a cottage style roof?
I'm assuming by "cottage style roof" you mean the shape which is sort-of achieved by using two trapezium shapes to depict the front and back of the roof (shorter edge being the uppermost edge) and then using two triangles for both the sides. (A trapezium shape is like half a hexagon). If this is the case, you calculate the area of the front of the roof by measuring the lower edge of the trapezium/roof and adding that measurement to the upper edge of the trapezium/roof, dividing by two, then multiplying by the distance between the upper and lower edge. (I.e exactly the same as finding the area of a trapezium). Assuming the back of the roof is the same, multiply the "front of the roof" measurement by 2. This gives you the area of "front and back of roof". To include the sides of the roof, measure the lower edge of the triangle-like shape and multiply by the vertical height. Add this measurement to the "front and back of roof measurement" to get "total area of roof". If you have kept all measurements in feet during the process, you will end up with "total area of roof in square feet" as required. Of course, it's possible that the roof may not fit the description of specific shapes, in which case it's best to make an estimate then add on a bit extra.
What is the area of a 625 square foot roof?
You have answered the question for yourself.!!!! The area is '625 sq.'
How do you find square yards of a roof?
To find the area of a roof in square yards, first measure how long it is and how wide it is in feet. Multiply the two numbers together to get the area in square feet. Since there are 9 square feet in a square yard, divide the number by 9 and you will have the area of the roof in square yards. If the house is L shaped, measure the different sections separately and then add the square yards together.
How big is the roof on a 1100 square foot bungalow?
The size of the roof on a 1,100 square foot bungalow can vary based on the design, pitch, and overhang. Generally, the roof area is slightly larger than the living space due to eaves and additional architectural features. A rough estimate would place the roof area between 1,200 to 1,400 square feet, depending on these factors. To get an accurate measurement, it's best to consult architectural plans or a construction professional.
