Pitched Roofs ~ the primary functions of any domestic roof are
to:-1. Provide an adequate barrier to the penetration of the
elements.- Maintain the internal environment by providing an adequate
resistance to heat loss.
A roof is in a very exposed situation and must therefore be
designed and constructed in such a manner as to:-1. Safely resist all imposed loadings such as snow and wind.- Be capable of accommodating thermal and moisture
movements. - Be durable so as to give a satisfactory performance and
reduce maintenance to a minimum.
Timber Pitched Roofs up to 7.5 m Span
