MORTICE AND TENON JOINT
IS USED TO FIX THE PURLIN
AND POST.

9. ROOFING MATERIAL
 ROOFING IS DONE BY USING PLASTIC SHEETS.
 PLASTIC SHEETS ARE PREFFERED OVER OTHER MATERIALS AS THEY ARE
CHEAP AND LONG LASTING.
 THEY ARE THE BEST SUITABLE ECONOMIC MATERIAL IN RAINY
CONDITIONS AND CAN BE EASILY REPLACED.
 THEY ARE FIXED TO THE RAFTERS BY USING ROPES.

10. LIGHT, VENTILATION AND VIEW
 THERE IS A VALLEY ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE DHABA HENCE
MAJOR SOURCE OF LIGHT AND VENTILATION IS FROM THE SAME.
 DUE TO THIS, TWO OPPOSITE SIDES THE DHABA HAVE OPENINGS,
THUS FAVOURING CROSS VENTILATION.
 THE SAME ROOFING MATERIAL IS USED TO CLOSE THE OPENINGS,
WHEN NOT IN USE.
 THE NUMBER AND SIZE OF
OPENINGS IS APPROPRIATE FOR
THE PROPER FUNCTIONING.
