How accurate are satellite roof measurements?
In most cases, satellite and aerial roof measurement technology is 99% accurate, if you follow a few simple rules. Achieving accurate roof measurements manually isn’t any different. A manual roof takeoff by one roofer can easily vary from that of another.
How do I find the dimensions of my roof?
Multiply your house length by your house width to get the area. (For example, 40 feet x 30 feet = 1,200 square feet.) Next, multiply the area by your roof’s pitch. (1,200 x 1.05 = 1,260 square feet.)
How are blueprints measured?
- Unroll the blueprint onto a flat surface.
- Find the scale of the drawing.
- Choose a scaled ruler that accurately matches the scale of the drawing.
- Lay the proper scale next to the item on the drawing and take the measurement.
How do you calculate scale drawings?
Method
- Find out what the scale on the drawing is.
- Measure the distance on the drawing using a ruler (or count the number of squares, if that’s an option).
- Multiply the distance you measure by the scale to give the distance in real life.
