    The document provides an equation to calculate the horizontal distance (d) between two roofs of different heights (h1 and h2) given their heights and a maximum height of 300 feet. It also states that roofs with slopes of 7.6 meters or less should be treated as flat roofs for lightning protection purposes, and specifies maximum spacing and placement of air terminals for ridges.
