House hip roof projects can be subject to adjustments - you can add or remove any elements. We will build any roof you choose to suit your requirements and wishes.

Roof loads

Load calculation is a mandatory stage of roof installation. It is known that a lot of pressure is applied to the rafter system (the average value per 1 m2 is 180 kg, but you also need to take into account the safety factor of more than 1.7, and then the load value reaches 300 kg with an average roof size of 200 m2). Errors in calculations can cause subsidence, the appearance of holes and waves. In this regard, this aspect must be approached responsibly.

Calculation of fastening points for hipped roofs

Fastening points are used to connect rafters. Bursting pressure acts on the roof, so for each node it is necessary to make correct calculations. In addition, it is important to choose the right material. If these factors are not taken into account, this can lead to bad consequences, such as rafters being torn off from the mauerlat or corroded, cracks, or damage to the roofing pie.

Why do you need a roof ventilation gap?

You need to decide on the ventilation system before installation, because the roof structure is selected depending on it.
There are two types of ventilation systems:

Single-layer is a membrane-type hydro-wind protection with an sd index of less than 0.1; the vent is made on top of the membrane, and the membrane itself is laid on top of the insulation.
Two-layer, provides for the use of hydro-wind protection with an sd index of more than 1; ventilation of the roofing cake - from the inside and outside.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages:

When installing skylights, good illumination is ensured.
Minimum snow and wind loads.
Good thermal insulation.

Flaws:

Requires more materials.
Heavy weight.
In some cases, it is difficult to install and design.

Angle of inclination of a hipped roof

Many design parameters such as load and type of coating depend on the angle of inclination. Each type of roof has its own optimal angle of inclination:

Metal tiles from 6°
Ondulin and slate from 6°
Profiled sheeting from 6°
Seam from 7°
Cement-sand and ceramic tiles from 10°
Flexible tiles from 12°

Common mistakes in designing hip roofs

Here we will outline what mistakes are often made during installation:

Insufficient number of sheets.
There are no fastening points.
Pressure calculations not completed.
Details such as ventilation gaps and skates are missing.
The roof ventilation is incorrectly calculated.

To avoid making such omissions and avoid spending additional money because of them, check out our training videos.

Frequently asked questions about hipped roofs

Question: I have a tower on a hipped roof, how do you recommend ventilating the under-roof space?

Answer: Ventilation in this case is done according to the same principle as on the roof, but on towers and complex structures it is easiest to install aerators. You will find more details in the video instructions.

Question: The valley on my roof is more than 10 meters long and there is no stop, what do you recommend?

Answer: Most likely, a mistake was made in your project, since the valley takes on the maximum pressure. If you need more precise advice, send your project to us by email.

Question: I have 4 skylights on my roof, do I need to insulate them?

Answer: All roof windows must be insulated, as this is one of the weak points roofs.

Types of hipped roofs

The hipped roof structure can be made in several options, including:

Classic. It has straight rafters without fractures, corner ribs originating from the ridge. All overhangs are concentrated on one level.
Tent. This option involves bringing all the edges together at one central point.
Danish hip. In its upper part there are short gable slopes. It will be possible to provide full vertical windows in the Danish roof.
Broken or attic hip. This design is difficult to manufacture, but with its help you can divert large area for living rooms.

The video shows a classic hipped roof:

Any architectural and construction project consists of three parts: architectural, design and engineering. This is a document without which the developer will not receive permission to begin construction.

The main part of the project is the architectural and design sections. If the customer is absolutely sure that the construction team will have intelligent specialists in engineering networks, then they can refuse to develop this part of the project in a specialized company. But it is necessary to understand that the architect, designer and engineer work on the project together and such aspects as, for example, grooves and openings in the walls for laying pipes and wires are provided for by them in advance.

The engineering part of the project is divided into several parts

Water supply and sewerage (WSC)

water supply scheme
sewerage diagram
general form systems.

Before starting design, it is necessary to decide what kind of communication will be - individual or connected to centralized system.

Individual water supply provides complete independence from external conditions. But you must remember that you will need your own water sources, and drilling a well will cost a decent amount.

Connection to a centralized system will require the development of a project in accordance with technical specifications existing network and obtaining permission for connection.

When connecting a sewerage system to a centralized system, the procedure is the same as when connecting a water supply: submitting a request to the relevant services, developing a project, obtaining permission to tap into the system. If you decide to organize an individual sewer system, then from time to time you will have to invite a sewer service.

Heating and ventilation (HVAC)

heating diagram: calculation of the required equipment power, distribution diagrams of heating mains, location of pipes and radiators
ventilation diagram: connection to power electrical equipment, ventilation communications and shafts, passage nodes and, if necessary, placement of stoves and fireplaces
boiler piping (if necessary)
general instructions and recommendations for the section.

If the ventilation system is always an individual design, then heating can be either individual (stove, air, water, electric) or connected to centralized networks.

Power supply (ETR)

lighting wiring
power network wiring
ASU diagram
grounding system
detailed description and characteristics of all system elements.

Electrical systems can be divided into mandatory and optional. Mandatory items include interior and exterior lighting, ventilation, air conditioning and electric heating systems. Additional systems include systems such as “Warm floor” or automated gate control.

IMPORTANT

Each part of the engineering section of the project must contain general and technical descriptions, specifications of materials and necessary equipment.
Drawings of elements of all systems and floor electrical wiring are made on a scale of 1:100.

Making changes to the project

Often the customer is faced with the question: choose a standard house project and save money, while losing on the originality of the future home, or order an individual project, but for a lot of money.

Our company offers a compromise option. You order a standard project, and we make changes to it, taking into account all your wishes as much as possible. Of course, this involves additional costs, but, in any case, such a project will cost much less than work for a specific order. And we will make sure that your home looks original.

The following changes can be made to the house design:

move wall partitions. But only if they are not load-bearing. This operation will allow you to change the size and purpose of the rooms

moving window and door openings will allow you to change the lighting of the rooms and organize convenient access to the rooms you need

changing the type of ceilings and walls will allow you to fully realize your own ideas about economical and rational housing

change the height of the ceilings. Although all our houses are designed with an optimal room height of 2.8 m, some customers believe that high ceilings provide additional coziness and comfort

Converting an attic into living space will give you the opportunity to expand your own living space

It is worth changing the angle of inclination of the roof and canopies, taking into account climatic conditions specific region

it is necessary to change the type of foundation, taking into account the engineering and geological parameters of the soil. It is also possible to add or change a basement or ground floor

you can add, remove, change a garage or terrace, in accordance with your ideas about the functionality of your home

change in structural composition, construction and finishing materials will allow you to manage your own financial resources economically

the project in a mirror image will allow the house to organically fit into the surrounding landscape.

The changes made should not affect the safety of the home.

Too many changes usually do not improve the project. If you couldn’t choose a suitable house from the catalogs, then maybe it’s worth ordering housing from an architect based on an individual project.

Package "Foundation adaptation"

When a standard house design is developed, certain average soil parameters are taken as a basis. But without accurate geological examination data, it is difficult to take into account all the nuances when designing. Therefore, often the engineering and geological characteristics of a real site differ significantly from those originally included in the project. This means that the foundation - the basis of the entire house - will need to be modified to make it strong and reliable.

To completely eliminate all problems when laying the foundation, our company’s specialists have developed the “Foundation Adaptation” package. When implementing a package, not only specifications, but also the wishes of the customer.

This package includes:

selection of foundation type
calculation of technical parameters:

Depth of laying the base of the foundation
- load bearing capacity
- indicators of soil stress under the foundation
- cross-sectional area of working reinforcement, etc.

detailed drawings of the zero cycle
cost sheet for construction materials.

Adaptation of the foundation provides a complete guarantee of its strength, and therefore the reliability of the entire building. You are guaranteed to get rid of problems such as shrinkage and cracks during the operation of a finished house. Moreover, often the adapted foundation turns out to be cheaper than the option originally included in the project. And this will help save materials and financial resources.

Individual design

If you decide to build a house, then you have your own idea of what your dream home should be like. And if none of the standard projects suits you, it makes sense to think about an individual project. In addition, all your wishes will be taken into account as much as possible: level of comfort, family composition, even the view from the window. It is clear that such a project will not be cheap. But you will know for sure that there is no other like it.
Sometimes, however, you have to resort to individual design. For example, a developer received a plot of land with a non-standard configuration, and not a single standard project simply fits into it. And it also happens that the number of changes made by the customer is such that it is easier and cheaper to design a house from scratch.

Stages of working on an individual project:

development terms of reference for house design
contract for design work
preparation of a preliminary design: linking the building to the area, external and internal views, layouts, sections
detailed study of project sections.

In addition, you can also order:

projects for additional structures - garage, workshop, bathhouse, etc.
visualization of the project in 3D format.

Ultimately, the customer receives a package of design documentation consisting of architectural and structural sections.

The project features:

General plan of the house linking it to the boundaries of the site.
Floor plans, which indicate the thickness of walls, lintels and partitions, room areas, specifications of windows and doorways.
Facade plans indicating finishing materials and color schemes.
Sections of the building and main components.
Drawings and sections of the foundation, material consumption sheet.
Calculation of the ceiling, roof truss system, insulation and waterproofing components of the roof.

You can decide on the style of your future home in the “Individual Design” catalog.

Package "Tender proposal"

For any developer, the question from the funny nursery rhyme "what should we build a house...?" far from idle. Moreover, the cost of building a house depends on many factors. Therefore, you should not estimate costs by eye. Without complete information, it will not be possible to calculate everything down to the smallest detail and, in the end, it will cost you more. And, in addition, a careful calculation of the cost of materials and work affects not only your finances, but also the time frame for building a house.

You can accurately calculate construction costs by using the “Tender Offer” service developed by our specialists. Essentially, this is a document that provides full list all construction materials and works indicating their volumes.

Having a tender offer allows you to:

get a real picture of the costs of upcoming construction
attract a construction company that can offer the most profitable terms execution of work
not only understand the essence of the construction process, but also competently control the consumption of building materials, independently adjusting prices for each item
competently control the actions of contractors at all stages of construction

a tender proposal supported by information on the cost of materials and construction work is a serious argument for obtaining credit funds from the bank.

Anti-ice package

Snowdrifts and ice in winter time on the roof of your house cause a lot of trouble. You can, of course, climb onto the roof and swing a shovel in the cold for 2-3 hours - no matter what. But effective snow melting and anti-icing systems have long been invented and widely used. Their basis is heating cables. The system is organized according to the same principle as a “warm floor”. Only more powerful and the cable laying step is smaller.

The Anti-Ice package is developed taking into account the characteristics of the home's energy supply:

for the roof and gutters: snow melting in gutters, at the edge of the roof to prevent the formation of icicles and ice in pipes

for the entrance group: heated steps, paths and open areas

for the entrance to the garage: heated driveways

in addition, sometimes the Anti-Ice system is used to heat the soil in greenhouses, and for landscape heating of flower beds, lawns and lawns, as well as for heating sports facilities.

During the design process, the minimum energy consumption is calculated and fire safety is ensured. When creating an Anti-Ice system, it is recommended to use only certified self-heating elements that do not support combustion. In addition, the system is equipped with a shutdown device in case of overheating or differential automatic to automatically shut down the system when energy loss is detected. If the system turns out to be too large, it is divided into smaller sections. This makes it easier to manage its work.

Important:

For a multi-pitched roof, the specialists of our company will design the Anti-Ice system according to individual orders.

Package "Lightning protection"

Often developers do not give of great importance protecting their own homes from lightning: some save, some count, some hope for chance. But 3-4 years after building a house, many people remember lightning protection. The neighbor's roofing felts were all burned in a thunderstorm Appliances, then I came across statistics about how many fires due to lightning occur per year.

We propose to resolve the issue immediately: to provide protection already at the design stage of the house. This is worth thinking about, at least for purely aesthetic reasons - there will be no need to once again hammer into the walls of the house and pull the down conductor along the facade, violating the well-thought-out appearance building.

Lightning protection for a home is a system of devices located both outside the home and indoors. External lightning protection prevents lightning from entering the house, internal lightning protection protects the electrical network from sudden voltage surges. And special devices protect electrical equipment from sudden changes in the electromagnetic field within the radius of a lightning strike.

The Lightning Protection package includes

layout diagram of lightning rods that absorb direct lightning strikes
cross-sectional diagram of a down conductor diverting current from the lightning rod to grounding
diagram of a grounding loop that distributes lightning energy in the soil, ensuring complete safety
averaged resistance calculations
detailed list of required materials
recommendations for project implementation.

"Central vacuum cleaner" is a type of aspiration system(removal of small particles by sucking them in with an air flow).

The system consists of:

vacuum cleaner(installed in the technical room);
air duct system along which the dust-air mass moves (hidden installation is often carried out in the preparation of the floor or in the space behind the false ceiling);
pneumosockets and pneumatic scoops(the first is connected to a flexible hose with a telescopic rod and a nozzle, as in a regular vacuum cleaner, the second is intended for express cleaning, usually in the kitchen).

Pros:

removable dusty no air gets in back into the room, and is “thrown out” after the unit onto the street;
No noise in cleaned areas.
Ease of cleaning without “dragging” the vacuum cleaner from room to room, without using extension cords.
Hidden installation system, there is nothing in the room except an air outlet.

Package "Comfortable Home"

Explanatory dictionaries claim that comfort is a set of household amenities, without which life is unthinkable
modern man in modern house. Most of these amenities are included at the design stage. But we are ready to expand their list and help clients make their own homes as comfortable as possible.

Therefore, our company Dom4m has developed for you the “Comfortable Home” package, which will make your home cooler on a hot summer day, and cozy and warm on winter colds.

The Comfortable Home package includes

Warm floor project. This modern technology heating the house. It can be used by connecting to both a local and centralized heating system. In addition, heated floors can be both the main and additional source of heat in the room. The main advantage of the system is that it creates a uniform thermal regime, does not dry out the air, and at the same time fits organically into any interior.
Design of a ventilation system with recovery. Unlike traditional systems, ventilation with recovery makes it possible to save significant money during operation. The essence of the system is that the exhaust air, passing through the recuperator, gives up its heat to the cold flow coming from the street. Everything ingenious is simple. This system allows you to significantly reduce heating costs. Savings reach up to 80%. And, in addition, the load on the network is reduced. In the summer, using a ventilation system with recovery, you can cool warm air from the street. And here you already get savings from reducing energy consumption when air conditioning your home.
Air conditioning system design. This project offers you the choice of a ducted air conditioner with distribution of air flows throughout the rooms or a multi-split system, which allows you to connect several indoor units to an external unit at once.

As you know, the vast majority of private buildings have a pitched roof, usually a gable roof. Many generations have passed since this type of roofing frame was invented, therefore, people have already become accustomed to it. But despite this, several decades ago many developers decided that they were already tired of this type of building, and it was time to change something. The gable roof was replaced by one-story houses with a hipped roof. In this article I will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of such a rafter system, its structure and its varieties.

Advantages of a house with a hipped roof

Before considering the pros and cons, we need to say a few words about definitions. A hip roof has another name in the roofing industry: “hip”. It is divided into several varieties, but I will talk about them below. As you know, everything is learned by comparison, so I will point out the advantages of four slopes, comparing them with a simpler design: a gable rafter system.

The hip rafter system can be classified as correctly structured. There are no vertical end walls (gables and gables), therefore, air resistance is reduced significantly. This type of roofing system is suitable for areas where there are hurricane-force winds with sharp gusts. In addition, its eaves overhangs feel more comfortable and collapse more slowly.
The corner ribs that converge near the supporting ridge beam have increased rigidity, so enormous efforts will have to be made to deform the hipped roof.
The hip roof has a significant area. In addition, eaves overhangs can be extended far beyond load-bearing walls, thereby creating a canopy that will protect the walls of the building from the effects of precipitation.
From a distance, your house will not seem so huge, since the roof does not stand out with its height. This can be useful when the appearance of your site does not allow for the placement of large structures.
A hip roof can accommodate almost any roofing material on its surface, but many developers prefer to cover it with soft products.

IMPORTANT: If you live in an area with big amount precipitation, then due to the ability to create large eaves overhangs, a hipped roof is one of the best possible options.

The disadvantages include the following:

Creating a hip roof is somewhat more difficult, since it contains many more elements. In addition, the amount of materials increases the price tag. But again, due to the lack of gables, the stone work is reduced, so this needs to be studied individually.
If the finished building has roof windows located at the ends, then during heavy rain they must be closed, otherwise a large puddle will form on the floor.
Due to the design of the roof frame, part of the attic space will be “eaten up”. This point is especially important if you want to create an attic floor.
Most developers install skylights on the hips to let natural light into the attic floor. If you are planning for the same, then you need to know one fact. Be sure to check this window before precipitation begins. If it is not closed, water will easily flow inside the room, which can seriously damage things inside.

IMPORTANT: If you plan to install dormer windows along the hips, then it is better to make them vertical. In construction this is called a "bat". Ondulin or metal tiles are ideal for this type of roof.

This is what the projects look like one-story houses with a hipped roof:

Structural elements

A hip roof consists of planes intersecting each other. The two end planes are triangles and are called hips. As for the facade ones, they have a trapezoid shape and occupy the vast majority of the entire roof space. The roof slope of this roof varies from 15 to 60 degrees. This steepness allows you to place almost any roofing covering on the surface.

The structural side of such a roof must necessarily include the following elements:

Horse. It is difficult to imagine any pitched roof, if you do not take into account the shed roof, without this element. Due to the fact that there is quite a lot of lumber in the roofing frame, it is better to install a ventilated ridge. This way, natural ventilation will have fewer problems, and moisture will disappear faster.
The stingrays themselves. By the way, depending on the design of the building, the area of the roof parts may differ from each other.
Cornice and gable overhangs. These sections of the roof are designed to drain falling precipitation from the walls of the building. They are created by attaching fillies to the ends of the rafter legs.
The rafter system is the frame of the entire roof and must be made of durable wood. The ideal material for this is coniferous trees.
Drainage system. Despite the fact that most private buildings have only one floor, sediment drainage is a prerequisite for the operation of the building. Otherwise, a situation may arise when the foundation simply cracks due to exposure to moisture.
Snow holders are selected depending on the roof covering. They can be different types, so it all depends on the region where you live.

Example good home with a hipped roof you can see in the photo above.

Types of hipped roof

Many types of roof structures have long been invented, but relatively recently they were collected into a certain system, where the main ones were noted and the subtypes were sorted out.

The hip roof has four varieties:

Standard four-slope system. There is nothing superfluous here, so to speak, a classic. There are four slopes, triangular on the sides and trapezoidal on the facades. All planes are assembled at the top point and form a ridge unit. The peculiarity of this design is that the length of the ridge is significantly less than the length of the entire building. Oddly enough, the rafter system of a standard hip roof belongs to the category of increased complexity, so it can hardly be assembled on our own without proper preparation.
Half hip Dutch. Looking at such a roof, you can immediately establish the similarity with gable roofs. The fact is that the Dutch system has two large trapezoidal slopes, and reduced hips are built at the ends of the house. Thanks to this, you can install ordinary skylights at the ends, which are much cheaper than attic windows.
Danish half-hip system. There are four slopes here, which in their shape resemble trapezoids, but they differ in size. The hip part of such a roof begins just below the ridge element, and on top of it is a small triangular pediment. It can be used to insert a skylight or dormer window.

Mansard roof with four slopes. This design has two triangular hips and two broken slopes, the slope of which can be changed at your discretion. This is convenient if you need to make high ceilings in the attic floor.
Surely, you have come across square houses with a hipped roof. This type of rafter system is called a tent system.. It requires fairly high stability, so it is made from isosceles triangles. This variety differs from its analogues in that all parts of the roofing plane are equal to each other and are a triangle. In addition, there is no need to install a ridge element on such a roof.

IMPORTANT: House designs with a hipped hipped roof must be created taking into account passages for artificial ventilation. Without aerators or deflectors, moisture will accumulate in the attic.

A two-story house with a hipped roof will look very beautiful and massive; after looking at the photo above, you will definitely say the same.

Composition of the rafter system

In the photo of one-story houses with a hipped roof, you can see their beauty and design, but the most important thing is hidden inside. The rafter system is the basis of the entire roof; everything rests on it. As mentioned earlier, durable wood species, namely coniferous, are best suited for creating a frame. But despite all its qualities, any natural material susceptible to rotting and decomposition. To prevent this, lumber is treated with antiseptics, and fire retardants are applied to them to increase the degree of fire.

The “skeleton” of this roof has the following elements:

Support beam or otherwise Mauerlat. The entire weight of the structure is distributed over it, after which it goes along the walls and goes into the foundation.
Racks are supporting components. They are placed on a beam or bed and prevent any deformation of the rafter legs.
Rafters. This type of roof has two types of rafter elements in its arsenal: diagonal and row. The former form the beginning of the hip slope, and the latter perform supporting functions on the trapezoidal slopes.
Puff. This function is performed by the beam. It is located horizontally and pulls together a pair of rafter units so that the walls of the building do not move to the sides under the load.
Strut. A beam that is installed at a certain angle in relation to the rafters.
Upper run. An element connecting the upper ends of the racks. At its core, it is a support for the rafters.
Lathing. It can be either solid or discharged. Everything will depend on the roofing materials used.

If you are far from construction, then you will have to hire workers, otherwise you risk doing something that is not according to technology and collapsing the entire roof structure.

The architectural appearance of a building is largely determined by the type and shape of the roof. But, paying attention to the aesthetic component, we must not forget about the requirements for the functionality of the roof.

Varieties of hipped structures

The solutions presented on our website include buildings with a laconic functional roof, as well as buildings with roofs of complex shapes, the design of which includes the installation of dormer and dormer windows, a combination of roofs at different levels, etc. We offer two main types of hipped structures.

Tent. The upper ends of the corner rafters converge at one point, forming a ridge unit. All slopes are identical isosceles triangles.

Hip. The corner rafters are attached with their upper ends in pairs to the ridge, the length of which is less than the length of the slope, due to which two triangular and two trapezoidal slopes are formed.

Advantages of 4-pitch roofs

Reliability. The configuration and angle of inclination of the hipped roof planes allow it to withstand high snow loads, as well as withstand strong gusts of wind due to its low windage.

Possibility of creating an attic. Hip structures are perfect for organizing this room, allowing you to significantly increase the usable area of the house. On our website you will find projects of cottages with a 4-pitched roof, which include an attic.

Wide selection of roofing coverings. For a hipped roof, any sheet or piece material, including composite and soft tiles.

Types of hipped roofs

The hipped roof structure can be made in several options, including:

Classic. It has straight rafters without fractures, corner ribs originating from the ridge. All overhangs are concentrated on one level.
Tent. This option involves bringing all the edges together at one central point.
Danish hip. In its upper part there are short gable slopes. It will be possible to provide full vertical windows in the Danish roof.
Broken or attic hip. This design is difficult to manufacture, but with its help you can allocate a large area for living rooms.

Houses with a hipped roof remain one of the most popular today. This popularity is due to the fact that it is possible to equip an additional room. To install such a roof, metal or ceramic tiles are often used. The above projects can be used to build a cozy and complete home for year-round living for the whole family with comfortable conditions.

Projects of houses with a hipped roof

One of important stages When building a house is the creation of a roof. From her the right choice and construction depends not only on the appearance of the house, but also on the internal comfort. For country houses, as a rule, they choose a hipped roof, which has many advantages over other types of covering, but its construction also requires knowledge of many nuances.

Project of a cottage with a hipped roof

In addition, this type of roof has several varieties with their own characteristics.

Advantages of a hipped roof

First of all, the hipped roof ensures uniform heating of the room from all sides. In addition, the space under the roof forms a warm and large attic; as a result, when building a one-story house, you essentially get two floors, and you can build an attic in the attic space.

It’s probably not even worth saying that such a roof provides excellent protection from bad weather, but few people know that this type of covering is more resistant to wind. Such a roof allows you to cover a structure of almost any complexity, unlike gable roof, which is intended mainly for standard buildings.

An example of a hipped roof in an original residential building project

The design of a hipped roof allows you to include additional elements in its design that serve not only as a decorative element, but also carry a functional load. These can be attic and dormer windows, which will enliven the appearance of the house, or panoramic windows located in the body of the roof itself.

Types of roofs consisting of four slopes

There are three main types of hipped roofs:

Hip roofs are the easiest roofs to make due to the absence additional elements. This coating looks like a pyramid with a square or rectangle at its base. Essentially, these are four identical or two paired triangles converging at one point. As is clear, pediments are not provided for this design.

An example of a hipped hipped roof at a cottage

The hip roof design also does not include gables, and it consists of two pairs of sides of different shapes. From the end or on the short side of the house, the slope looks like a triangle, on the long side - like a trapezoid.
Half-hip is perhaps the most difficult design to manufacture, since each slope is made of two parts: upper triangular and lower trapezoidal. Such a roof allows you to equip a spacious attic in the attic with panoramic windows, and, if desired, a balcony. At the same time, the strength and reliability of such a coating does not suffer at all. As a rule, such roofs are used when arranging two-story houses.

Parameters taken into account when constructing a hipped roof

Such a covering is perhaps the most difficult to manufacture, mainly due to the fact that such a roof is one of the heaviest that are used in private construction.

Therefore, before starting its construction, it is necessary to create a project that takes into account all the loads that will affect both the roof itself and the structure.

Loads mean the following impacts on the rafter system:

The total weight of the structure itself, which consists of the mass of roofing materials and various types isolation;
The weight of additional elements, such as windows, antennas, ladders and other equipment located directly on the roof surface;
Loads from wind, snow and other precipitation, while the calculation takes into account the average statistical data inherent in the region in which construction is carried out.

Project of a cottage with an attic, a veranda and a hipped roof

The structure is divided into separate sections, for each of which a separate calculation is carried out. This takes into account the fact that most of the elements in the real state are in an inclined position and their dimensions on paper do not correspond to the true ones.

Also, the design of the roof takes into account the standard dimensions of the materials used, this will eliminate additional work on cutting and fitting and will significantly reduce the amount of waste. It is still better to entrust the creation of the project to a professional, since not every person can correctly calculate the design, especially if many additional elements are planned.

In the project that the specialist will provide, in addition to the drawing of the rafter system, there must be calculations for the length of the rafters, the location of the sheathing and diagrams of the connection points of all elements, both basic and additional.

What material to choose for rafters and roofing

As a rule, larch or pine wood is selected as the material for the rafter system, which is carefully checked for defects and cracks.

Certain requirements are also imposed on the moisture content of raw materials; optimally it should be at the level of 18-22%.

Wetter timber must be dried first, since the installation of a rafter system made of wet wood will lead to deformation and distortion of the entire structure during drying.

The cross-section of the timber used in construction must be determined during the project development process. But in some cases it is permissible to use an alternative option, when a board with a section of 5x10 cm and 5x20 cm is used.

Project of a house with a garage in high-tech style

If the strength characteristics of such boards are not enough, they can be doubled.

The roofing material used for covering is selected depending on the climate zone, the purpose of the attic area and the angle of the roof.

As a rule, for a roof located at an angle of 30-60 degrees, tiles or a roof consisting of individual elements are selected as the material;
An angle of 15-60 degrees is preferable for a roof made of steel or asbestos sheets;
The roof at 10-20 degrees is covered with slate or rolled material.

How to determine the amount of materials needed

Based on the completed project, the quantity is determined required material and its cost.

There are several factors to consider:

First of all, it is necessary to accurately calculate the total roof area, which is calculated using the eaves overhangs.

Project of a one-story house with an original hipped roof

Select the material from which the roof will be made, although it is preferable to complete this stage at the design stage.
Consider the allowances for parapets and canopies, as well as the size of the overlaps during installation.
When cutting material for construction, a certain amount of waste is generated in any case, so building materials are purchased with a reserve of 10-15% of the total volume.

When purchasing material, do not try to save money at the expense of quality; the wood should not have defects or flaws.

Features of installing a hipped roof

The main task when arranging a roof is to correctly manufacture the rafter system; the strength and rigidity of the structure depends on it:

First of all, the mauerlat, which is a beam laid around the perimeter, is installed and attached to anchors outer wall. In this case, the distance from the edge should be at least 5 cm.
Next, markings are made according to the roof design for other main structural elements.

Project of a two-story house with a hipped roof

Racks and ridge beams are installed, which must be leveled. For these purposes, it is most convenient to use a plumb line.
To secure the racks vertically, jibs are used (supports positioned at an angle to the rack).
Install all the necessary rafters and brackets. Moreover, if the house, and therefore the roof, is small in size, hanging rafters are used; for large buildings, an inclined version is used.
Lathing, insulation and roofing material are installed. Valleys (gutters that drain water from the roof surface) and a ridge are installed.

By the way, hipped roofs are excellent option for use on various gazebos. Since such a roof is very similar to a tent, it perfectly protects from bad weather and you can use the gazebo regardless of rain or heat.

In addition, such buildings look quite attractive and modern, thanks to which they fit perfectly into the surrounding landscape.

But using a hipped roof for a bathhouse is quite impractical, since the price of this structure is significantly higher than the cost of a conventional gable roof. At the same time, the bathhouse definitely does not need an attic. However, if landscape design involves the construction of all buildings in the same style, then no one bothers to make a similar roof for the bathhouse.
