Snow loads on flat roofs with elevated solar panel arrays
Steel Construction, 2019The installation of solar (or photovoltaic, PV) panels (also arrays) on flat roofs is becoming increasingly popular. Experimental investigations have not only provided qualitative results for snow load distributions, but also quantitative results that ...

Wind loads on flat roofs of low-rise buildings with rounded leading edge
Zhongguó gongchéng xuékan, 2019Using wind tunnel experiments, wind loads on the flat roofs of low-rise buildings with rounded leading edges were investigated under the effects of separation bubbles and conical vortices.

Structural Survey, 1988
This paper is predominantly concerned with flat roofs of timber construction with which the author is most familiar. The principles discussed are, however, generally applicable to roofs constructed of other materials.

If a flat roof is relatively easily deformed, excessive accumulation of water on the roof can give rise to the ponding effect, whereby autoexcitation of the deformation occurs, possibly leading to collapse. This article examines the conditions under which the ordinary limits for deflections of roofs under variable loads are sufficient to withstand the ...

Applied Optics, 1965
A microwave or laser resonator with flat-roof mirrors is discussed from a theoretical point of view. When the angle of the roof is extremely small, on the order of 10−3 rad for microwaves or 10−3–10−6 rad for optics, this resonator has some features in common with the confocal resonator.

Both flat and pitched roofs can conveniently be subdivided into two main sections for purposes of measurement, that is, construction and coverings. The order of measurement of these two sections varies in practice, but on balance it is probably better to take the construction first since this follows the order of erection on the site.
