Galvan Builders Publishes New Blog Post About Metal Roofing In Corpus Christi

October 25, 2019 – – Corpus Christi, Texas based Galvan Builders is pleased to announce they have published a new blog post on calculating the area of a metal roof. They also advise homeowners to hire a reputable roofing contractor who can provide an estimate based on the metal roofing’s price per sheet, as both the material and labor costs associated with roof repair or installation depend on the roof’s total dimensions.

As noted in the blog post, the Pythagorean theorem is a useful formula that can be used to identify the dimensions, and eventually calculate, the surface area of a roof. Letters a, b, and c can be assigned to identify the three sides of the roof. Roof rise (b), can be obtained by counting siding courses. Start by measuring the siding width and count courses at the building gable end. The number of siding courses from the roof triangle base to the roof peak multiplied by the siding course width is equal to the total roof rise (b). Meanwhile, roof length (c), is the step off building gable end width or the building length plus gable overhangs. The goal is to calculate the third side of the triangle, the hypotenuse or also referred to as the roof width (a).

The roof width (a) can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem which is a2 = b2 + c2. The square of the length of the hypotenuse (a) equals the squares of the lengths of the opposite sides of a right triangle (b) and (c). The roof area can now be calculated by simply multiplying the roof length (c), which is the sum of the building length plus the gable end overhangs of the roof by the roof width of slope (a) that was calculated using the Pythagorean theorem. Furthermore, the slope, or grade, of the roof can be identified using the tangent feature of a calculator, and is nothing more than just a ratio of the roof’s rise over run.

David Galvan, owner of Galvan Builders, explains that the roofing system is one of the most expensive parts of a house, so it is crucial that property owners hire a reputable roofing contractor who can guarantee excellent roofing material performance at a reasonable cost. Galvan also points out that a good roofing manufacturer guarantees excellent roofing material performance that is often inclusive of lifetime warranties if qualified and exceptional roofing personnel will install them. “Our team of roof specialists and installers aim to give every client the roofing solution that they need.
