11.77°
Roof Pitch to Degrees Conversion

Standard Roof Pitch (Roof Slope as X-in-12) Roof Angle (In Degrees)
2.5-in-12 11.77°
3-in-12 14.04°
3.5-in-12 16.26°
4-in-12 18.43°

How do you convert pitch to degrees?

If you know the roof’s angle in degrees, you can find the roof pitch by converting the angle in degrees to a slope, then finding the rise by multiplying the slope by 12. First, find the slope by finding the tangent of the degrees, e.g. slope = tan(degrees). Then multiply the slope by 12 to get the rise.

What angle is a 12 12 pitch?

approximately 45 degrees
What angle is a 12 over 12 pitch? Roofs with a pitch of 12/12 are approximately 45 degrees, depending on how exact you’d like to be in your measurement. Check out our roof angle chart for more examples of the exact angles (expressed in degrees) of common roof pitches.

What angle is 5/12 pitch roof?

This means if a roof rises 4′ in the length of 12′, your Roof Pitch would be 4/12 or 18.43 degrees….Roof Pitch and Corresponding Angles.

Roof Pitch (slope) Roof Angle (degree)
4:12 Pitch 18.43°
5:12 Pitch 22.62°
6:12 Pitch 26.57°
7:12 Pitch 30.26°

What does a 12 pitch roof mean?

The angle, or pitch, of a roof is calculated by the number of inches it rises vertically for every 12 inches it extends horizontally. For example, a roof that rises 6 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run has a 6-in-12 pitch.

Is a 4/12 roof pitch steep?

4/12 is quite typical. Anything under 3/12 is a low pitch roof. Anything above 6/12 is a steep roof pitch since it becomes harder to walk on the roof.
