Roofs come in many different styles and
sizes. To determine how many shingles are required, we must
first obtain the area of the surface to be covered. In general,
a roof can be defined by a series of rectangles, triangles, parallelograms
and even cones. In the fields provided below enter the required
information for the roof you are covering. Each area will
be added to a running total. You can enter as many areas as you
require, such as two rectangles of one size then 3 of another
size and 4 of another size. For example: a typical gable roof
consists of two identical rectangles, while a simple cottage style
might consist of two trapezoids and two triangles. Each click
of a CALC button will compute the area of the
component entered and each click of the ADD to TOTAL
button will add the newly calculated value to your roof total
area. Each entry is listed in the summary box below.
