Shatrovaya roof: features of the structure

The hipped roof is a construction consisting of four isosceles triangular rays, converging at a point and supported by a rectangular base (sometimes square). The consumption of materials here will be reduced due to the lack of pediments. If desired, the hipped roof can be made independently. The process of its construction is not so difficult.

The rafter system of the tent roof can be hanging or stratified. Fastening of the suspended structure is carried out on the external walls, due to the lack of internal supports or a bearing wall inside the house. Installation of such rafters is difficult, it is better to give it to specialists. But a tent roof can be used by a home master. Usually this is solved by supporting the rafters on the central columnar supports, which stand on the supporting wall and the reinforced concrete base. Especially recommended is a solution with a roof slope of forty degrees.

In more detail it looks like this. Cantilever rafters go to the corners of the bearing walls. These diagonal elements lie at one end on the Mauerlate, others rest on the rafters' feet and are bearing and supporting for the Narodniks. The latter, in turn, are shortened multi-span legs. Racks and struts are used to support the legs of the system. Rigels are needed to support the skate. Running and laying hold racks, struts of the construct. It is desirable to mount the mortises on the waterproofing. Runs on work are similar to the beams that lie parallel to the Mauerlat.

Additional supports of the springs, usually come from a bar. Support for the entire roof is determined by the type of house. This can be the upper frame of frame buildings, Mauerlat walls made of bricks, the top wreaths of log cabins.

During construction, the roof hood should have the mutual dimensions of the elements to ensure overall strength and load-bearing capacity. The distance from the rafters to the rafters will be up to 135 centimeters. The diameter of the logs is better to take about 10 cm. The size of the boards: 8 cm thick by 10 cm wide. At a distance of up to 170 cm, the log should be taken about 15 cm, and the boards 9 cm by 10 cm. It is better to take the runways and the mauerlat to a log diameter of 16 cm or a log size of 5 cm to 10 cm. A beam of 12 cm cross-section will fit the posts, crossbars and struts Or again a bar measuring 5 cm by 10 cm. All dimensions, of course, are better calculated with the task of the rafter, the snow load and the dimensions of the house.

The overall slope of this construction depends on the coating material. For tiles, this parameter is from 30 to 60 degrees. Roll materials work in dimensions from 8 to 18 degrees. Asbestos-cement sheets are laid within the limits of 14 to 60 degrees.

In conclusion, it should be noted that the hipped roof, the photo of which you can see in this article, should be made of high-quality wood, especially without knots, for bearing capacity. It is desirable to know that if the tree is dried, then the depth of the cracks can be no more than 1/4 of the length of the beam. It should be noted that coniferous trees are the best holding strength and resistant to loads.
