Gabled roofs like our mock-up here are made up of common rafters, and in order to lay out those rafters, youll need to know the slope of the roof first. In order to get the slope youll need to measure and understand four things: span, total run, unit run, and unit rise. First is the span. The span is the total measurement of the building from its outside edges. So the span of our mock-up here is four feet. Next is the total run. This is an easy number to get because its half the distance of the span, or in our case, two feet. To understand unit rise and unit run, were gonna use this visual aid. Unit run, which is represented by this side of the triangle, is always 12 inches for rafters that are 90 degrees to the ridge, like our common rafters. And then last is the unit rise. So for every 12 inches of unit run, a rafter will rise a certain amount which is normally predetermined
