2. Flat roof A roof is designated as flat if its slope is less than ten degrees. Flat roofs have traditionally been used in hot climates where water accumulation is not a problem. They were generally unkown in northern climated before the end of the last century
Flat roof Slope less than 3:12 or 25 percent Structural decks ordinary used Wood panels over wood joist Solid wood decking over heavy timber framing Corrugated steel decking Sitecast concrete slab Precast concrete slab Panels of wood fibre bonded together with portland cement etc
Flat roof The decks be adequately stiff under roof loading and uplift forces The decks must slope towards drainage points A slope at least ¼ “ per foot run (1:50) is recommended
Flat roof If the slope is too shallow, puddles of water will stand for extended periods Leading to premature deterioration of the roofing materials in those areas If water accumulates cause by structural deflection, progressive structural collapse becomes possibility Deepening puddles attracting more and more water and becoming heavier
a) Water stands on the roof in puddles, causing slight deflections of the roof deck between supporting beams or joists b)If heavy rain continues, the puddles grow and joint. Accumulating weight of the water begins to cause substantial deflections. Deflection encourage water from a border area of the roof run into the puddle c) As structural deflection increase, the depth of the puddles increases more and more rapidly, until the overloaded structure collapses a b c

PROBLEMS OF LEAKING ON FLAT ROOF
Weatherproofing the flat roof The flat roof relied on some kind of membrane for keeping moisture out. In dry climates this is done with clay tiles, but in Canada asphalt, or rubber is necessary.  Flat roofs are never actually flat, a subtle slope directs standing moisture to drains at edges, or inside.
Flat roof Advantages of flat roof design:  No space lost below roof, i.e. no dead space Less material is used than in a sloped roof The rooftop is potentially useful as a terrace, or sleeping porch Potentially pleasing appearance  Easier to build than a sloped roof
Disadvantages of flat roof design:  Roof elements can not overlap, hence waterproofing must be more complex, and more thorough Drainage is not automatic  Support of snow load must be insured
Flashing Flashing is special material used to make sure that no moisture leaks in those areas of a roof that are particularly vulnerable to penetration.  Areas where flashing is commonly used:  Wherever the roof is pierced by a chimney, skylight, air or plumbing vent  Where roofs meet walls  At the edges of flat roofs where they meet parapet walls (a wall that extends above the level of the roof)
Flashing Materials from which flashing is made of: Galvanized metal  Aluminum  Copper  Building paper Flashing Design:  Sloped roofs: it is important to design flashing so that it throws the water downslope, and does not rely on mastic. Flat roofs: it is important that flashing be extended above the level at which you expect snow or water to accumulate
3. Space frame A  space frame  or  space structure  is a  truss -like, lightweight rigid structure constructed from interlocking struts in a  geometric   pattern . Space frames usually utilize a multidirectional span, and are often used to accomplish long spans with few supports. They derive their strength from the inherent rigidity of the triangular frame; flexing  loads  (bending  moments ) are transmitted as  tension  and  compression  loads along the length of each strut.

Final products
PROFILED STEEL SHEET DRY BOARD ROOF SYSTEM (PSSDB) The profiled steel sheet Dryboard panel is a composite structural system consisting of profiled steel sheeting/decking compositely connected to dryboards by simple mechanical connectors .
Structural components of  PSSDB System
COMPONENTS OF PSSDB AJIYA CLIP & LOCKING CL 660  --- A  profiled steel sheet product of Ajiya Roofing products, Malaysia. PRIMA FLEX--- A top grade cellulose fibre, Portland cement and finely ground sand produced by Hume Cemboard Berhad, Malaysia.  SCREWS --- Self-tapping, self-drilling screws.
Main Advantages of the System Lightweight Rapid construction Dry construction technique Easily assembled by unskilled labour Saving in foundation cost of the buildings Less deep than the traditional timber joist flooring Less loading to existing structure in renovation work No propping/formwork required during construction No waiting period for occupation after the completion of construction.
MAIN APPLICATIONS OF PSSDB PANEL The profiled steel sheet dryboard system can be exploited for various structural purposes such as: i)  Flooring units. ii) Walling units. iii) Panels may be assembled to form Folded Plate  Structures such as as roofs of buildings.
 
 
The normal position is not suitable to be used in real buildings. Show slight softening in strength and bulging in volume under wet condition. Even though a water proofing can be used from directly exposed to the hot and dry weather, but it is not a practical in practice Based on the original concept of the system, the application has been extended to form a new concept of roofing system. The new approach will eliminate the roof trusses normally required in traditional roof structure.  PSSDB Roof system
