Input Parameters
#141 / 218Rafter Hypotenuse: 13.42 units | Roof Area Multiplier: 1.118x
Angle θ = arctan(Rise / Run); Pitch = (Rise / Run × 12) : 12; Rafter_Length = √(Rise² + Run²)
Example Calculation & Assumptions
Example Inputs: Roof Vertical Rise (Inches or Meters): 6 · Horizontal Span Run (Inches or Meters): 12
Example Output: Roof Pitch & Slope Angle: 6.0 : 12 (26.57°) (Rafter Hypotenuse: 13.42 units | Roof Area Multiplier: 1.118x)
- Works with any consistent linear unit (inches, feet, or meters) for rise and horizontal run.
