What does rise over run represent?

It sounds like a way to describe the amount of pitch, or steepness, in a roof or similar structure - e.g., a rise of 12 feet over a run of 60 feet.


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.


How to calculate pitch?

Either by degrees from the horizontal - or by foot rise per 1000 feet (or per mile).


If the roof pitch is 10 12 with a 10' run what will be my rise?

A 10/12 means for every foot of run your rise is 10". so, 10' x 10" = 100" rise in 10 feet.

What is the difference between pitch and slope?

In regards to roofs. "Pitch" is a ratio of the total rise of a roof over the total span of a building. "Slope" is a ratio of the total rise of a roof over "half" the total span of a building. A building 40 feet wide with a total roof rise of 10 feet (from the top of the supporting walls) has a pitch of 10/40 reduced to 1:4 A building of the same dimensions will have a slope of 1:2 or 6/12 on the imperial framing square.


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 minimum pitch requirement on a roof?

the pitch of a 7-12 roof slope meaning that for 12" of horizontal measurement (roof run) the vertical measurement (roof rise) is 7". Not totally sure but I believe the minimum to be about a 3-7 inch pitch 3 inch roof rise per 7 feet of horizontal measurement


To rise to your feet?

What is the actual rise of a roof rafter?

Depends on what pitch the roof is. Measure the ceiling joist to a point or to center and then plumb to the rafter and do the math. 3, 4, 5, x 12 pitch rises that much per foot of distance on the ceiling joist. 3x12 pitch, 12 feet to center of joist, 3x12=36. 36 inch rise from the edge of the roof to the center.
