The roof is one of the main elements of buildings that performs protective and decorative functions. For a frame building there is a large selection of roof designs. The original solution, which has recently received a new life, a single -sided roof of a frame house.
Where it is used.
More recently, such roofs were used mainly for small summer houses, household buildings, garages. Single -toe roofs with competent design have many advantages, and at the same time do not limit the work of the designer, it is not for nothing that they are preferred in Germany and the countries of Scandinavia. Currently, single -toe roofs are chosen for their houses and multimillionaires, taking into account both style, prestige and people with modest income in their buildings, also evaluating the savings of this option. Some developers do not like the appearance of such buildings, they choose more traditional types of roofs, this is a matter of taste.
Advantages of single -sided roofs:
Simplicity of design.
It is economical in construction.
Economic in operation.
Organization of stocks on the one hand of the building.
Small sailing.
Not afraid of snow drifts.
Structure.
The inclined plane of a single -sloping roof is based in a frame house on the upper strapping. Depending on the slope and size of the roof itself, the structure is supplemented by simple auxiliary structural elements.
A single -sized roof can be:
— With the attic
— Without an attic.
The presence of the attic depends on the slope of the roof. The attic is most likely a technical. The issue of a ventilated roof is easily solved here, special holes are simply made.
And if the slope is small, the roof may compatible with the ceiling. In this case, the horizontal ceiling will not work, it will inevitably inclined. It is necessary to think over his insulation. Such a roof will be unentile.
Roofing coatings for single -sided roofs.
The chosen roofing for a single -sided roof is again closely connected with its slope. For example: for a soft roof — a slope of the roof of 5 degrees, for the corrugated board is a slope of about 8 degrees, the folding coating is the roof slope of 18-30 degrees, for the slate — the roof slope is 25-30 degrees, for the metal tile of the roof is approximately 30 degrees.
As architects say, the roof of the “fifth facade” of the building. The selected type of roof will emphasize the individual taste of the owner of the house.
Materials of the supporting structures of single -sided roofs.
For the supporting structures of single -sided roofs, coniferous woods are most often used, also structures can be reinforced concrete or metal.
Some features of single -sided roofs.
If you place a house with a single -sided roof on a sloping side, then such a roof will be better protected from the wind. And if the roof slope looks to the south, then in such a house it will be better to remain warm, the owner will be able to save on heating.
