Abstract (en)
A pyramidal roofing structure (10) has pitches comprising roofing panels (14) prefabricated from spigot-and-socket intercoupling edge framing (20, 22, 24) clad with stiff load-bearing sheeting. The panels (14) are interconnected edge-to-edge through base webs (30) of channels constituting upwardly convergent side edge framing members (20). A central aperture of the structure due to the panels (14) not reaching the apex is shown covered by transparent or translucent sheets (16). The entire structure (10) can be built up anywhere and then hoisted into place, e.g. onto landing cleats (70) on hollow posts (50) that may house rain water down spouts from guttering (48) on a ledge (44) of the stepped lower panel frame member (24). Adjacent structures (10) may be bolted together via lower parts (36) of the base webs of the lower panel frame members. Roofed structures and building methods are also disclosed, the latter including cladding between support posts (50) after hoisting the roof structure(s) into position.
