Where can I get a worksheet

in the gable, width times height times 0.75 is not the area of a triangle. For the dormer that isn't the correct area either. Is the calculation this way to account for waste?

[@0525doncanelo]

is it the same math for any siding or just for vinyl?

[@InsulatedSiding]

This video is specific to vinyl siding, depending on the siding you're using, the process should be similar.

I'll be using Hardie cement fiber. Should the calculations be the exact same?

"Heighth"

[@ethanchambers6383]

Alexander Cuddeback haha! Funny, back when my old man was teaching me the trade, I would always bug him for saying Heighth lol

[@broham76]

It's a colloquialism of the mid-west; a holdover word from centuries past. The spellings 'heighth' and 'highth' competed in popularity with 'height' into the 18th century. You can find it in many famous literary works, founding fathers documents/letters, and old newspapers. Be pleased to send me a genteel sute of Cloaths …; I woud have you therefore take measure of a Gentleman who wears well made Cloaths of the following size-to wit-Six feet high & proportionably made; if any thing rather Slender than thick for a Person of that highth with pretty long arms & thighs…. -letter, 26 Apr. 1763 George Washington

“Heighth” is not a word fella.
