The roof is the uppermost part of a building that protects it from weather elements like rain and wind. It is supported by structural members and covered with roofing material. The main functions of a roof are to enclose the space and protect the building. Good roofs also increase the life of the building. There are different types of roofs including pitched or sloping roofs, flat or terrace roofs, and domes. Pitched roofs are the most common type and come in single, triple, and other framed styles.
