Removal of shingles - correct answer estimate for the actual number of
ST
squares (not square feet). No estimating or rounding.
Replacement of shingles - correct answer a) Include waste in the
O
calculation
-10% - Composite
IC
-15% - wood
b) Round up to the nearest bundle
-Assume 3 bundles per SQ for composite shingles
-Assume 4 bundles per SQ for wood
What do wood shingle estimates always end with? - correct answer fourths.
.25, .5, .75, .00
What do composite shingle estimates always end with? - correct answer
thirds. .33, .66, .00

Hip roof triangular ends - correct answer are calculated when the main roof
is calculated b/c a triangle is accounted for that didn't actually exist
When calculating extensions on a hip roof - correct answer don't count for
the triangle, but don't forget the two parallelograms remaining (there is a
good chance they are identical)
When calculating the main body - correct answer Don't assume that you
can just find one side of a roof and double it. Why? the rafters might be
different lengths
ST
How do you find the height of a hip roof? - correct answer the height of the
triangle is equal to the length of the rafter that is forming the parallelogram
O
(only true if the pitch of the roof is identical and the angles on the hip roof
IC
are 90 degrees)
