Please post in a separate question ----->how long will the rafters be on a 51 ft bldg. with a 6/12 pitch?

Greetings and WELCOME to the site, Dan! Since the Introductions topic area is for introductions only and not for asking questions, I have moved your thread to a topic area where it will get more exposure to those who are best able to answer your question.

Total width of building = 51'
Length of ceiling joist (run of the rafter) 51/2 = 25' 6"
Height of ridge with 6/12 pitch (rise of rafter) = 12" 9"
Square root of A squared plus B squared = C squared
Length of rafter =28' 6"

Don't forget to add for the overhang. Which of course is not given.
