The pitch of the roof in the Philippines refers to the angle, or the slope of the roof. Due to the fact that the Philippines is susceptible to weather events such as typhoons, a properly built roof is vital. A slope of 15 to 30 degrees is best for the climate in the Philippines.
One needs a height of 8mm to get a 5 degree pitch in a new roof. When taking measurements, it's best to do it on a bare roof, because old shingles can have an effect on your measurements
Roofs may be functionally flat or "pitched". In building construction, roof pitch is a numerical measure of the steepness of a roof. A flat roof on the otherhand, is a roof which is almost level in contrast to the many types of sloped roofs. The slope of a roof is properly known as its pitch and flat roofs have up to approximately 10°. If you have a flat roof, there is probably a leak in it or there will be a need for a flat roof repairs in the future.
a roof with two pitches. seen on shaker, victorian, prarie style roofs: a lower pitch change will occur within the last 3-5 feet of the eave.
a framing member (2x4 or similar), attached to a wall, upon which, sits the top (high end) of a "pitched" rafter.Placement of the plate determines the pitch of the roof, hence the name.---------------------------------------It is more commonly called a ridge board, or if it is designed to transfer load, it is called a structural ridge.Pitching plate iscolloquial, and not a common term in the US.
too many variables here, mostly the size of the roof above it (steepness, weight of shingles, tile or slate? etc. You're best to overengineer it. A double thickness (3.5" X 12" or 16" wide) glulam will support a reasonably large roof above it, otherwise a simple double 2x12 would work for a 3/12 -6/12 pitch roof with light grade 30 year shingles.
A single pitch roof is basically a flat roof with a pitch (or angle), usually to allow water to run off. This differs from a double pitch roof /\ that is what you commonly see.
Roof pitch is measured in "rise over run". In other words, how many inches does the roof rise vertically in 12" of horizontal run. If a roof rises 4" in 12" of run, you have a 4/12 roof pitch.

The pitch of the roof.
Roof pitch is rise and run. So if you have a 4/12 pitch, for every foot of run the roof rises 4 inches.
roof pitch 14.9 degrees, or roof pitch 26.6%
In general, talking about roof pitch, I have never heard or read about this term being used. Roof pitch is measured when you start at the leading edge of a roof and measure towards the center of the house too 12 feet. Pitch is measured from a imaginary parallel level line at the 12 foot mark, how many feet high the roof is at 12 feet is the pitch of a roof. If your roof is at 4 feet high at the 12 foot mark then the phrase would be- a 4/12 pitch.
pitch
Pitch is a bitumen or it can mean the slope of the roof for example 1/8" per foot fall
A roof angle of 6 degrees = 1.26 / 12 rise or pitch.
