This simple device is crammed with tables, data and tricks that allow a carpenter to lay out roof rafters, stairs, or other building features. A carpenter's framing square includes tables stamped right into the tool itself. This article explains how to make quick use of a framing square and its imprinted data to get some basic roof measurement data like roof pitch or slope, rafter lengths, and end cuts, stair stringer cuts, lengths of braces and other construction measurements.
Roof measurement methods: these articles explain various methods for measuring all roof data: roof slope or pitch, rise, run, area, and other features. This article series gives clear examples just about every possible way to figure out any or all roof dimensions and measurements expressing the roof area, width, length, slope, rise, run, and unit rise in inches per foot. For a complete on-line guide to identifying and using all of the tables on a framing square.
Here we provide downloads of framing square instructions, historical documents, and more information about the framing square or carpenter's square or steel square, including early framing square patents, and framing square use guides. Illustrated here, the Chappell framing square by Steve Chappell, cited just below.
