2 degree roof pitch per metre.
A pitch over 9 12 is considered a steep slope roof between 2 12 and 4 12 is considered a low slope roof and less than 2 12 is considered a flat roof.
Here is an online rise and run calculator which helps to calculate pitch slope and angle with the help of rise and run values.

What degree angle is a 12 12 pitch roof.
The rise is the distance from the top of the roof to the bottom.
The run is the distance from the outside of the wall to the inside of the ridge.
Generally such roofs have a pitch ranging from 1 2 12 to 2 12.
Low pitched roofs are generally difficult to maintain and you need special materials to prevent leaks.
How much fall in a 2 degree roof over 1 meter.
The table below shows common roof pitches and the equivalent grade degrees and radians for each.
Divide the first part of the ratio by 12 to work out the pitch.
How much fall in a 2 degree roof over 1 meter.
Find the inverse tangent of the pitch to find the angle in degrees.
To convert between american roofing ratios and pitch degrees follow these steps.
These roofs have a pitch less than 4 12.
