But this is for the Wind Mitigation inspection stand point of view, will it consider the entire perimeter as HIP roof?

Are you kidding. That gable at the rear of the house looks like it's more than 10% of the roof perimeter. Am I wrong. If not, you have to mark B. on the form.

Why it is that everyone of these inspector when there is a question in doubt from any other new inspector there is a sarcastic answers from everyone of you, it is a forum where we suppost to ask question and looking for advice from others inspector, people I know some of you have more experience than others but that does not mean you have the right to make fun of others new inspectors question, it's only a simple question, everyone here should help each other not telling others who's smarter or who has more experience, if some other inspector have question in doubt I will be more than happy to help out, I really don't need these sarcastic answers, you all been sarcastic and unprofessional

Careful there...not everyone was sarcastic. You're post was a little vague, so I answered your question without knowing it was for a wind mitigation inspection. At times you've got to learn to ignore the posters that obviously have no intention of helping you.

I know you were not the one being sarcastic, you gave me the answer, but I asked the second one for the mitigation, but the rest of these guys gave me these sarcastic answers

Chiun-

No sarcasm from me. I really would like to know how you came to decide that it should be a Hip roof on the 1802 form. Based on the wording on the 1802, I don't see how this could be anything other than a Non-hip.
