Run-- ft
Gable Height-- ft
Gable Area-- sq.ft
Roof Slope-- ratio

Formulas

Run: R = S / 2

Gable Height: GH = R × VR

Gable Area: GA = GH × R

Roof Slope: RS = y / x

where:

  • R = run (ft)
  • S = span (ft)
  • GH = gable height (ft)
  • VR = vertical rise (in/ft)
  • GA = gable area (sq.ft)
  • RS = roof slope
