The appearance characteristics of roof mounting structure mainly include two types: flat roof and pitched roof. Each type has its own unique appearance characteristics and application scenarios.
Flat roof
The slope of the flat roof is small, usually between 1% and 5%, and sometimes even lower. Its structure is relatively simple, the roof is relatively flat, and it can adapt to various complex architectural plane shapes. The advantages of flat roofs include simple structure, flat indoor ceiling, material saving, and convenient construction. In addition, the roof of the flat roof can be used for a variety of purposes, such as setting up roof gardens and roof swimming pools. However, the drainage speed of the flat roof is slow and it is easy to accumulate water, so special attention should be paid to waterproofing.
Pitched roof
The slope of the pitched roof is large, generally exceeding 10%. Common forms include single slope, double slope, hard mountain and hanging mountain roof. The pitched roof is known for its smooth curved lines and beautiful visual effects, and is suitable for people who like traditional and natural styles. The pitched roof performs well in ventilation and drainage, and can quickly remove water from the roof, but the construction is relatively complex and requires professional construction skills and experience. In addition, the sloping roof also performs better in terms of thermal insulation and heat preservation.
