The roof is not just a design that has an original shape and a beautiful surface. It is she who is an obstacle to cold, precipitation and other external troubles. It also serves as a barrier delaying home heat.
Types of roofs
Flat. Not very popular species, especially against the background of the possibilities of attic rooms. Of course, on a flat roof you can install a pool, plant a small garden or place a sports ground. Roofing works are not particularly difficult. But while these options are not very common.
Naught roofs. Single -shield, gable, tent and t.D. There may be all kinds of configuration. The main thing is the exact calculation of inclination depending on the chosen roof material.
Mansard roofs. In principle, these are ordinary pitched ones, but the height of the attic room allows you to make it residential.
Roofing materials
The choice of roof is determined by the design of the roof and the capabilities of the owner. We bypass exotic – wood, natural and artificial straw, etc.P. Better to contact more frequently used coatings.
Slate. It is used less and less. Since against the background of operational qualities of new materials begins to lose. Pretty fragile, heavy, so an independent roof of roofs is possible only if there is a partner. But it is cheaper, manufacturers have successfully mastered the production of colored sheets.
Metal roofs. If the cost of roofing work with leaf materials is quite high, and their independent conduct is difficult, then the appearance of a metal tile solved both of these problems. In addition, polymer coating, protecting steel, provides a decrease in the “noise” of the metal and aesthetic appearance.
Ceramic. All tiles of this species are almost eternal. Some roofs have been experiencing the third century. And the methods of today’s production only improved the quality of ceramics. Minus – large weight. Roofing work with this material requires skill.
Soft roofs. Rolled and sheet materials are easy, easily mounted. In general, so far continuous “pluses”. “For now”, because they are operated in the conditions of the Russian climate not very long ago. Although, such an experience is – roofing ground, only. Color, design (wavy sheets, tiles) are quite diverse. The possibility of installation on top of the old roof reduces the cost of roofing, facilitates their implementation.
Modern construction makes high demands on a combination of functionality and attractiveness. Therefore, the roof of the roofs must correspond to all these parameters. New materials correspond to them quite.
