What Is a Blueprint?
A blueprint is a two-dimensional set of drawings that provides a detailed visual representation of how an architect wants a building to look. Blueprints typically specify a building’s dimensions, construction materials, and the exact placement of all its components.
The word “blueprint” originated in the mid-nineteenth century when engineering drawings were printed on blue paper with white lines. In the modern construction industry, physical blueprints typically aren’t blue. Construction drawings, construction plans, building plans, house plans, floor plans, and working drawings are all types of blueprints.

Roofing blueprints include:
- Roof Type
- Roof Materials
- Roof Ridge Covering
- Roof Ventilation
- Roof Overhang
- Roof Pitch
It will be difficult, if not impossible, to pull off a new roof construction or installation without a comprehensive blueprint that takes into account all factors listed above.
For example, the pitch of a roof is critically important to shield a structure and involves detailed calculations. A roof pitch will be determined by the run and rise of a roof and angled to form the slope of a structure. Even a flat roof can have a slope of up to 10°.
The type of roof pitch in your blueprint will help you to determine which roofing materials you select.
Heavier roofing materials like clay and slate tile will need a steeper slope for support and proper overlay; roof pitch should also be adjusted to reduce snow load in colder climates to prevent water accumulation or collapse.
