A flat roof is a type of cov¬er¬ing of a building. In contrast to the sloped form of a roof, a flat roof is horizontal or nearly hor¬i¬zon¬tal. Ma¬te¬ri¬als that cover flat roofs should allow the water to run off freely from a very slight inclination. Flat roofs are a popular style for many buildings, whether business or residential. They can indicate an architectural style anywhere. Integrating a flat roof as a green roof terrace, publicly-accessible area or even as a profitable solar panel roof optimizes the profits and benefits derived from the building. A flat roof can be strengthened either by reducing the span of beams that supports it, or by adding beams to reinforce the structure.
