Roof pitch. 1  The slope of a roof usually expressed as a ratio of vertical rise to horizontal run, or in inches of rise per foot of run. 2  The slope of a roof, usually expressed as the angle of pitch in degrees or as a ratio of vertical rise to the horizontal run.
How Roof Pitch is Calculated. To accurately calculate the area of your roof, you must first determine its slope, or pitch. A roof's pitch is determined by how much it rises vertically for every foot it runs horizontally. Thus, a moderate â6 in 12â roof pitch means that the roof rises 6 inches vertically for every 12 horizontal inches it runs. A â12 in 12â pitch is a steep, 45-degree angle roof.
