each cm you move the strut top in = 1 deg neg camber.. or thereabouts

Geometricly speaking isn't 1mm in a meter 1/2 a degree?

not exactly..
if you have a circle with circumference = 360cm, then 1cm = 1 deg.
2*Pi*r = 360
r = 360/(2*Pi)
r = 57cm.
the length of the strut is approx 50-60cm, so each cm you move the top or bottom is approx 1deg camber

That's quite interesting and if I'd thought about it I would have realised. I was referencing off detail on roofing squares and levels that has exactly what I first posted (not disputing you 'cause it's plainly correct) just what was stuck in my mind. What would you say they are refering to? Because I recently pitched a roof off the squares angles and it was ok?
