I am trying to calculate the length of a piece of metal flashing for a valley on a building. There are two different roof pitches that create this valley. it has a 3.5/12 pitch on one side and a 4.92/12 on the other. I am not sure what pitch these two create. What I would like to do is have a formula where I could put the two pitches in it and it would give me the pitch of the other. Then I would like to calculate the length of the flashing going up that pitch. Below are the calculations that give me the degree the flashing has to be broken if it is of any help.
Valley & Hip Plate at Corners NOT Square in Plan
Pitch 1 (on 12) = 3.5
Angle 1 (°) = 16.26 S
Pitch 2 (on 12) = 4.92
Angle 2 (°) = 22.29 SS
D' (°) = 35.43
D (°) = 54.57
90 = 90
X:12
RI = 13.37 = 13.37 2.85
C6 (°) = 80.66
C6' (°) = 71.99
C8 (°) = 152.7 Results
