Flat, Mono & Curved Pitch Roofs
If your design requires anything other than a pitched roof of over 12.5 degrees, then you are likely to need a specially designed mono, curved, or flat pitch roof. For these the load calculations, span widths, and connection details all need special engineering consideration.
The use of different types of engineered timber materials and advanced technology products, like shaped glulams and Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL), may also be preferred.
Indeed, this may be necessary if non conventional roof surface treatments, like 'green' roofs of turf or other planting.
A special advisory service is available for architects and other design professionals considering using such approaches.
