Résumé

Roofs form the fifth skin of buildings and define the character of the architecture. Their main function is sometimes to provide protection against the sun and wind, and sometimes to channel, collect and store rainwater. With this in mind, this book presents a complete and up-to-date study of the different types of roof, the materials used and their auxiliary elements. It includes designs by both recognised and emerging architects, with plans and technical details.
