Describe slope and how it is calculated using unit run and rise.
What will be an ideal response?
Slope is a common term used to express the steepness of a roof in terms of unit run and unit rise. The unit run is the number used as a base for the roof angle and specified as 12 in. (304 mm). The unit rise is the number of inches the roof will rise vertically for every unit of run. For example, if the unit rise is 6 in., then the roof will rise 6 in. for every 12 in. it covers horizontally, and the slope will be expressed as 6:12.
