Calculate Adjacent Pitch

Calc Adjacent Pitch

[Pulldown Menu only]

The operator is prompted to indicate pitch of roof plane ‘a’ and digitises the eave lines and the software calculates the pitch of ‘b’.

 

This is almost exclusively used when digising or tracing 2D roof geometry by simply recreating the linework on the sketch underneath.   We’re not creating a 3D model so the pitch might turn out to be almost any odd number.   It is drawn and the pitch is determined.

This is imporatnt because the pitch factor is what is used to figure the lengths and quantities in the subsequent reports
