The table below shows common roof pitches and the equivalent grade degrees and radians for each.
Roof pitch 22 5 degrees.
Other than the 45 roof slope which is 12 in 12 none of the standard roof pitches 5 in 12 6 in 12 etc are equal to a whole degree.
This means if a roof rises 4 in the length of 12 your roof pitch would be 4 12 or 18 43 degrees.

What roof angle in degrees.
To see how pitch impacts the look of a garage and changes cost click the design center button on our pole barn kits page.
So my latitude here in proserpine is 20 4 degrees close enough to the normal roof pitch of 22 5 that any loss of efficiency would be next to nothing.
Enter base length to calculate rise and diagonal for current pitch angle.

Roof pitch refers to the amount of rise a roof has compared to the horizontal measurement of the roof called the run.
On blue prints architects engineers usually display the pitch of a roof in the format shown on the image where number 4 represents a rise and number 12 represents a length.
A 4 12 slope is enough to accommodate water runoff but is not suitable for regions that are affected by heavy snowfall.
For this you can take help from roof pitch factor chart.
As a rule of thumb most solar installers state that your latitude is the best angle to mount solar panels to achieve maximum effiency.
If your house roof is built with multiple pitches then square per roof must be calculated differently.
This forms an angle of 18 5 between the horizontal section and the roof and creates a gentle incline that is seen as a midpoint between a low pitch and medium pitch roof.
Directly measure roof pitch angle and calculate pitch and angle on phone or tablet.
Select inches to enter decimal inches or millimeters for metric.
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.
