Calculadora de Área y Pendiente del Techo — ft, elevación:recorrido, grados
Cómo usar esta calculadora
Calculate actual roof area from building footprint y pitch. Enter dimensions three ways: footprint + pitch (rise per 12″), rise + run measurements, or angle in degrees. Choose roof shape — gable, hip, or shed — y get instant results including pitch factor, actual area, rafter length, y an SVG profile diagram.
Multi-section — Add additional roof sections for complex roofs.
Factor de pendiente — The multiplier applied to footprint area to get true roof surface area, accounting for the slope.

Cómo Calcular el Área del Techo from Pitch
This utility calculator converts between roof pitch formats (rise:run, degrees, pitch factor) y calculates the actual roof surface area from building footprint dimensions. It supports gable, hip, y shed roof shapes with multi-section capability for complex roof geometries.
Fórmulas
Pitch factor (PF) = √(1 + (elevación/12)²). Ángulo = arctan(rise/12) in degrees. Rafter length = run × PF. Gable area = footprint area × PF. Hip area ≈ footprint area × PF × 1.0 (same PF, all 4 sides sloped). Shed area = footprint area × PF (single slope).
Common Pitches
2:12 = 9.5° (low slope, minimum for shingles) · 4:12 = 18.4° (standard residential) · 6:12 = 26.6° (steep) · 8:12 = 33.7° (very steep) · 12:12 = 45° (equal rise y run).
Preguntas Frecuentes
What is a roofing square? One square = 100 ft² de área del techo. Roofing materials are often sold by the square.
How does hip differ from gable? A hip roof has all four sides sloped. The pitch factor applies to all sides, but the total footprint cobertura is the same — both use PF × footprint area for actual roof area.
