Conventional roofs are the easiest to construct and you can walk on them safely.
													
																	12 9 roof. 
								
	
		
	
																	9 12 roof pitch to angle 36 87 degrees. 
																	In the united states a run of 12 inches 1 foot is used and pitch is measured as the rise of the roof over 12 inches. 
																	9 12 roof pitch 37 degrees. 
																	In between rain storms the roof is getting sheathed little by little. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	A 2 12 roof slope means your roof has 2 inches of vertical drop for every 12 inches of horizontal distance. 
																	Also referred to as 9 12 roof slope 9 on 12 9 to 12 and 9 12 roof angle. 
																	If this isn t practical then perform the same measurement on the underside of the roof. 
																	For instance a 7 12 roof pitch means that the roof rises 7 inches for every 12 horizontal inches. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	What is a 9 12 roof pitch. 
																	We included a roof pitch chart below the 7 12 example image and the calculator below that. 
																	Outside of the u s a degree angle is typically used. 
																	High pitched roofs often need extra fasteners and their pitch can be as high as 21 12. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	These roofs have a pitch less than 4 12. 
																	7 12 roof pitch 30 angle 30 26 degrees details. 
																	9 12 roof pitch angle to 36 87 degrees. 
																	So a roof pitch of 10 12 as seen below means for every 12 horizontal inches of roof the roof rises 10 inches. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	9 12 roof pitch angle 36 37 degrees. 
																	9 12 roof pitch angle 36 87 degrees. 
																	The second number is the horizontal area measured usually measured as a standard 12 inches one foot of roof. 
																	9 12 roof pitch equivalents roof rises 9 in a length of 12. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	Getting up on a 12 12 roof pitch and sheathing a roof isn t my favorite thing to do but. 
																	Image 1 12 to 12 12 roof pitch 7 12 pitch. 
																	Roof pitch degree table. 
																	The higher the first number rise in the ratio the steeper the roof. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	You can also calculate roof pitch even without using a roof slope calculator. 
																	This is a steep slope roof. 
																	They have a pitch ranging from 4 12 to 9 12. 
																	If a roof rises 9 in a length of 12 this is 9 12 roof pitch. 
															
													
								
	
		
	
																	A pitch over 9 12 is considered a steep slope roof between 2 12 and 4 12 is considered a low slope roof and less than 2 12 is considered a flat roof. 
																	That means the roof doesn t shed water as easily as steeper roofs which is why choosing the right type of roofing material is so important. 
																	Most roof s have a pitch in the 4 12 to 9 12 range.
